Democratic checklist against anti-Sámi hate speech

This democratic checklist against anti-Sámi hate speech has been compiled by five Norwegian youth councils.

It is a concrete result of the project No Hate Against Sámi People carried out by the Wergeland Centre and The Narvik War and Peace Centre. It consists of actions that youth councils believe municipalities and local governments across Norway should implement to combat prejudice and negative attitudes toward the Sámi minority. The checklist was developed during a gathering in Narvik in April 2024 and includes 20 specific actions that government organizations can check off as they are implemented.

The checklist is available in English, Norwegian and three Sámi languages.
