Coronavirus – HOPE not hate

The Coronavirus emergency will have a severe medical, economic and political impact on society over the next few months and possibly years. In the coming weeks and months HOPE not hate will be commissioning polling on public opinion on the virus, as well as producing reports and analysis on how individuals and groups are weaponising the pandemic to spread hate.

All of this will be published here.
