This research paper explores the discourse surrounding civilized coexistence and tolerance, emphasizing the prevalence of constructive dialogue, respect for differing opinions, and the promotion of social harmony. The significance of this study lies in its focus on the culture of civilized coexistence and tolerance, which should ideally permeate all human societies. The research problem centers around university students’ perception in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) regarding the role of modern interactive media in disseminating the culture of tolerance and civilized coexistence as countermeasures to the proliferation of hate speech, terrorism, and extremism. To address this problem, the researcher employed two theoretical frameworks, and the interactive media platforms of Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, YouTube, Instagram, and Snapchat were utilized. The findings of the study led to several recommendations. Firstly, it is imperative to renounce hate speech and actively report any online platforms through interactive media channels that propagate topics related to violence. Additionally, fostering positive engagement with others is crucial to cultivating an environment conducive to tolerance and civilized coexistence.
