Webinar: The EU Digital Service Act (DSA) and its implications for hate speech online

The Digital Service Act (DSA) has reached significant milestones since its passage into law. Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs) and Very Large Online Search Enginge (VLOSEs) have submitted systemic risk reports, analysing the risks of and responses to illegal online content within their services. The Digital Service Coordinators of each EU Member State, responsible for enforcing the DSA, continue to be designated and begin their work. 15 organisations have now achieved trusted flagger status, and are flagging online content to online platforms, with more expected throughout 2025.  

Significant enforcement challenges remain, however. Will new policy and content moderation trends by some online platforms affect online platforms’ ability to meet their DSA obligations? What does this mean for hate speech online? And how will the European Commission, EU Member States, and civil society organisations working within the context of the DSA respond to these changes? 

This online event will bring together leading voices who work daily within the context of the DSA. The exciting panel contains speakers from the leading civil society organisation HateAid, from CNAM (Ireland's media regulator), and from Europol.
