Ways to Stop Racism

Awareness Campaign, Spreading messages of tolerance in schools and media, organizing workshops about respect and diversity, creating social media content against racism, and involving influencers to reach more people.

Project Website The website explains simply how racism harms society and helps people understand and take action to stop it. It includes a section to report racist acts, where users can upload evidence and their information. Our team will then contact the authorities in their country to handle the situation.

If we find any form of racism on any social media platform, we report it to the app so that action can be taken as part of our website’s mission as an Anti-Racism Authority.

We aim to make our voices heard by the world and governments sharing people’s experiences and working to convince governments to create laws that prevent racism and punish anyone who practices it.
