Antifascist Europe
Antifascist Europe is an antifascist research project spanning activist initiatives, journalists and researchers from around Europe who monitor the development and transnational networks of far-right and right-wing populist parties as well as white supremacist, neo-Nazi and fascist groups.
By providing analysis, research, and data on far-right networks across Europe, we contribute to a more accurate understanding of the threat they pose. By fostering collaboration and knowledge among European antifascists and allies, we aim to eradicate this threat, end fascism, and build a safer Europe for all.
