Community Development Centre, Yei South Sudan
CDC is an indigenous non-governmental, nonprofit organization in South Sudan, founded by a connection of artistic and ambitious South Sudanese youth in Yei.
Youth, who constitute the largest share of the South Sudan population and also in cyberspace, need to be educated & equipped with the necessary competence to recognize and act against online hate speech.
This June, combined with r0g / agency for open culture and critical transformation we’ll be hosting major #defyhatenow campaigns in Yei that aim to mobilize youth, organizations and citizen stakeholders to act against hate speech.
