NO HATE SPEECH MOVEMENT INTERNATIONAL PHOTO COMPETITION

Description

The No Hate Speech Movement is organising an international photo competition dedicated to the European Action Day against Islamphobia and Religious Intolerance on 21 September 2014. Religion has always been an inseparable part of human history, and as much as it unites people, unfortunately it can also be an instrument for hatred and discrimination. The main aim of this competition is to show the importance of religious tolerance as well as appreciation and respect for diversity of religions. You are invited to expand on this topic and express your views on it via your creative ideas in the form of a photograph.
