On 6 October, the CCOA team organised “Stronger Together: Building Joint Jewish–Muslim Responses to Online Hate”, in partnership with the International Network Against Cyber Hate (INACH), Nordic Safe Cities, and URI (United Religions Initiative).

The event brought together civil society, policy, and community actors from diverse backgrounds to explore shared responses to antisemitism, anti-Muslim hatred, and wider online harms. The programme featured keynote remarks from Katharina von Schnurbein, European Commission Coordinator on Combating Antisemitism and Fostering Jewish Life; Marion Lalisse, European Commission Coordinator on Combating Anti-Muslim Hatred; and Dilwar Hussain, Strategic Advisor at Faith in Labour UK.

The CCOA team facilitated the programme, creating space for lively discussions, knowledge-sharing, and meaningful exchanges across communities. The five workshops and five deep dives brought together experts from across the anti-hate sector and European Jewish and Muslim communities to explore practical approaches to countering online hate.

A heartfelt thank you to all our keynote speakers, workshop and deep-dive leaders, partners, moderators, and participants for their contributions to the event and for helping create such an engaging space for exchange and collaboration.

The conversations don’t end here. Let’s continue building connections, strengthening solidarity, and working together towards a safer digital environment. Thank you for being part of this journey. See you at our next event!

From 1-3 September, members of the CCOA Microgrant Initiatives came together in Málaga for a three-day Accelerator Workshop, marking the final in-person meeting and the closing moment of their one-year journey.

The workshop provided an opportunity to look back on the initiatives implemented throughout the year, reflect on the experiences and lessons gained along the way, and exchange good practices with fellow participants. A particular focus was placed on monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL), with participants sharing approaches, challenges and insights on how to assess the progress and impact of their work.

The workshop also created space to look ahead: participants explored opportunities for continued collaboration and considered how the connections, knowledge and experiences developed throughout the programme could support their work beyond the initiative. Beyond the sessions themselves, the workshop also offered an opportunity to build connections among the participating initiatives and strengthen a network of practitioners working to develop community-based responses to antisemitism. The three days in Málaga marked an important moment of collective learning and exchange, providing participants with practical insights and new perspectives to take forward in their ongoing work.

CCOA is launching its 2026 Summer Programme – a two-month capacity-building initiative building on the expertise of the network and designed to strengthen skills, knowledge, and applied practice across a diverse range of professional backgrounds. The programme focuses on scaling impact in addressing online antisemitism and broader forms of online hate within the wider anti-hate ecosystem. Combining expert input with practical application, the programme supports participants in deepening their understanding of current challenges and translating evidence-based insights into practice. It accommodates different levels of engagement and experience, allowing participants either to attend individual sessions or to follow a more guided pathway with opportunities for reflection and the exploration of European prevention and counter-strategies aimed at overcoming fragmented efforts across Europe.

Key Topics

• Detection and prevention of online antisemitism
• Emerging antisemitic narratives, codes, and memes
• Engagement with regulatory frameworks
• Victim support, safety, and resilience
• Translating research on online governance into policy and practice
• Cross-country exchange and European perspectives
• Evidence-based approaches: from research and data to practical action

No specialist or technical background is required. The programme values local experience, community knowledge, and practitioner perspectives alongside action, research and policy insights.
