Gonzaga University 
Institute for Action Against Hate

ABOUT US

The Gonzaga Institute for Action Against Hate was founded as a positive and enduring vehicle for combating hate and hate crimes on campuses and in communities throughout the nation. While numerous government and non-governmental organizations are working against hate, the Institute is the only organization whose primary goal is to focus multi-disciplinary academic resources on the causes and effects of hate as well as potential strategies for combating hate. 

As part of a Jesuit institution located in Spokane, Washington. near the north Idaho border, the Institute advances the social Justice mission of the University while creating a positive educational presence in a region sometimes associated with bigotry and intolerance. 

It is far better to light a candle than curse the darkness.
