APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2022-2023 GLOBAL RESEARCH INITIATIVE FELLOWSHIP ARE OPEN!

The Dangerous Speech Project (DSP) is recruiting fellows for its Global Research Initiative (GRI), a network of scholars and practitioners who document and analyze dangerous speech in their home countries, to better understand it, and especially to learn how to diminish its harmful effects. Dangerous speech is any form of human expression (such as words or images) that can inspire people to commit or condone violence against another group of people.  The DSP, based in Washington, DC, is a team of researchers who study how speech leads to violence. We advise internet companies, governments, and civil society on how to anticipate, minimize, and respond to harmful discourse in ways that prevent violence while also protecting freedom of expression.
