Presentation Type: Oral Presentation
The necessity for scrutinized research on issues related to migration and tolerance is determined by the presence of paradigms and negative stereotypes in society. Certain problems arise from the fact that the migration issue is over-politicized. Some politicians and journalists see this situation as a cause for the pressurization of the tense situation.
A research Club for students operates at the faculty of journalism, the aim of which is to shape effective communication and science-based problem-solving skills among students.
Within the Club, students identify hostile language and hate speech in the journalistic texts, put them up for discussion, and propose their examples of texts. Among members of the Club, besides local students, are students from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and China. The Club fosters the establishment of moral values, tolerance, and guidelines among young people.
A survey was conducted among the members of the Club to check the Club’s work efficiency and determine the tendencies in the development of interethnic and cross-cultural dialogue. Creative works of students and texts of their articles have also been studied for civil solidarity and the nature of dialogue and compromise.
Experience of the Club can serve as a good example of ensuring an objective public perception of migration issues: understanding the global nature of the topic, assessing objectively the migration processes, and explaining laws and rules of labor migration.
