Discover how digital media can empower inclusion, mediation, and peacebuilding across Europe.
We’re proud to share two key research outputs from the INCLUDE ME+ project that explore how digital media is shaping – and being shaped by – efforts to build safer, more inclusive online spaces. These reports offer valuable insights from both comprehensive Desk Research and hands-on Participatory Action Research (PAR).
Together, they highlight how digital platforms can become spaces of visibility, safety, and voice for marginalised communities.
A collection of eight in-depth studies carried out by project partners across Europe – including Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Turkey and Ukraine. This report examines the role of digital media as a mediating force for inclusion, with a focus on challenges, opportunities, and recommendations for building respectful and peaceful online environments. It also proposes educational modules to address key gaps and support inclusive digital practices.
This report reflects a collaborative research process involving community voices across Europe. By working with participants—not just studying them—it gathers insights into how people experience digital conflict, exclusion, and engagement. It includes findings on digital media’s role in peacebuilding and mediation, with a strong emphasis on community-based educational proposals.
