Hope is considered significant for the wellbeing, recuperation and restoration of human life by health professionals.Hope speech reflects the belief that one can discover pathways to their desired objectives and become roused to utilise those pathways.Hope speech offers support, reassurance, suggestions, inspiration and insight.Hate speech is a prevalent practice that society has to struggle with everyday.The freedom of speech and ease of anonymity granted by social media has also resulted in incitement to hatred.In this paper, we work to identify and promote positive and supportive content on these platforms.We work with several machine learning models to classify social media comments as hope speech or nonhope speech in English.This paper portrays our work for the Shared Task on Hope Speech Detection for Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion at LT-EDI-ACL 2022.
