Research Program
Turning Data Into Action
At A World Without Hate, we believe that lasting change begins with knowledge. Our Research Program is committed to uncovering the root causes of hate and discrimination while identifying the most effective ways to confront them.
Research is more than numbers — it's about understanding lived experiences, measuring impact, and ensuring that every initiative we champion is guided by data, truth, and accountability.
Our Research Focus Areas
By grounding our work in evidence-based research, we strengthen our programs and provide valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and community leaders.
Hate Crime Trend Analysis
We track and analyze hate crime data to identify emerging patterns, vulnerable communities, and systemic issues that fuel discrimination. These insights help us raise awareness, shape public policy, and mobilize targeted responses.
- Monitoring national and local hate crime statistics
- Identifying gaps in reporting and advocating for better data collection
- Highlighting disparities that demand urgent action
Intervention Effectiveness Studies
Not all responses to hate are equally effective. We conduct rigorous studies to evaluate what works, what doesn't, and why — ensuring that our interventions deliver real, measurable change.
- Assessing the impact of empathy-based education programs
- Evaluating community organizing and advocacy campaigns
- Publishing findings to inform best practices across the field
Community Impact Assessments
We believe that communities must be at the heart of every solution. Our research measures the real-world impact of programs and policies, centering the voices and experiences of those most affected by hate.
- Gathering testimonies and feedback from community members
- Measuring how interventions improve safety, trust, and resilience
- Providing recommendations that ensure solutions are people-centered
Why Research Matters
Without research, solutions risk being reactive rather than transformative. By studying the trends, testing interventions, and listening to communities, we ensure that every step we take is rooted in evidence and aimed at lasting change.
