Nancy Mkrtchyan talked about hate speech to Nelli Gishyan, who is an international expert at the Council of Europe, an international human rights educator. In 2015-2018, she was the national coordinator of the CoE "No Hate Speech" movement, after which the pan-European activists of the movement and the national committees of the CoE member states established the "No Hate Speech" International Network. Nelli has been elected Chair of the International Board at "No Hate Speech" Network until December of 2021.

It is important that People could distinguish between hate speech and freedom of expression. There can be no democracy without freedom of expression, and without democracy human rights are not protected. Episode 9 is about hate speech.
