Taking a stand against hate content online

IN light of recent escalations in the dissemination of hateful, offensive and violative content across various social media platforms, the Communications and Multimedia Content Forum (Content Forum) as a leading industry forum and self-regulatory organisation, is issuing a stern call to action for responsible social media engagement.

The surge in harmful content on social media platforms is a growing concern, affecting individuals, communities and societies. While these platforms have revolutionised communication with their immediacy and interconnectedness, bad actors have exploited these features for the rapid spread of divisive and damaging content.
