Preview of the 2024 Summit by Brette Steele, Eradicate Hate Global Summit President
The world’s most comprehensive anti-hate conference.
The Eradicate Hate Global Summit was formed as a response to the largest anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history. On October 27, 2018, a gunman motivated by hate ideologies murdered 11 Jews and injured others worshiping at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh.
The Eradicate Hate Global Summit is a vehicle for worldwide action. It held its first conference in the Fall of 2021 during the COVID pandemic, and almost 100 speakers from around the globe attended. The second conference in September 2022 attracted more than 260 speakers and over 1,600 people attended either in person or virtually.
The Summit’s annual conference breaks down silos to bring together the world’s leading anti-hate experts from many disciplines and sectors, including representatives from public policy organizations; tech and platform companies; federal, state, and local government and law enforcement; the military and veterans; judges and lawyers; doctors and other mental health professionals; educators and students; academic researchers and data scientists; journalists and film-makers; and former members of hate groups. They are inspired to collaborate and develop new solutions to prevent hate-motivated violence by the personal experiences of survivors and victims’ families whose voices are heard at the conference.
International participants include the United Nations Special Advisor on Prevention of Genocide along with foreign government representatives, civil society organizations, and researchers from around the globe, including Australia, Canada, Europe, UK, and New Zealand.
The Eradicate Hate Global Summit now stands as the most comprehensive anti-hate conference in the world.
