Dear Colleagues,

Has anyone a Freedom of Speech and/or Academic Freedom policy which takes account of incitement to hatred towards all protected characteristics, not just that of ethnicity and race? (We added in other protected characteristics a couple of years ago).

Also, has anyone included issues of Freedom of speech and social media: blogs, twitter and so on, in their policy?

If so please could I see a copy?

Best wishes

Christine
