Social media community guidelines

About our social media channels

The purpose of Multicultural social channels is to educate Victorians about the state’s multicultural and multifaith communities. We will share information about the different communities that make up Victoria, programs and initiatives, events, and opportunities for communities to have a say.

When we monitor our accounts

Multicultural and Multifaith Victoria engages on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Our accounts are monitored during business hours only. If you have a question or comment that you would like us to respond to, we will try our best to respond during business hours.

Terms of use

We value your comments and contributions on social media.

While we encourage everyone to join the conversation, please keep all comments and discussion on-topic, respectful and courteous. We will remove or report posts, comments or links that we consider:

• discriminatory, potentially defamatory, false, or misleading, racist, off-topic, inflammatory, repetitive, offensive or otherwise inappropriate
• disrespectful toward another person
• to make another person feel unsafe
• commercial content, advertisements, or spam
• campaigning for a product, service, cause or initiative
• infringement of the intellectual property or legal rights of others
• disclosing your personal details or the personal details of others
• completely off-topic
• any other material we consider to be inappropriate.

What happens if you don’t follow the terms of use

If your comment breaches the above guidelines, we will remove it and send you a private message with a warning. If you breach these guidelines a second time (or your original breach is severe), we will block you.
