Report racism
Victoria’s rich cultural diversity is one of our greatest strengths. Regardless of where you’re from, what you look like, what you believe or what language you speak, no one should have to endure racism in the place they call home. We have created this hub as a one-stop shop to help people understand and combat racism.
This section provides an overview of how to report racism to the Commission.

Community Reporting Tool
If you have experienced racism, sexual harassment or discrimination of any kind, or if you have any human rights issues or concerns, then we want to hear from you. The Community Reporting Tool is a quick way to tell us what has happened, or what you are worried about.
You do not have to tell us your name but, if you want to, you can ask for someone at the Commission to contact you and try to help you.
We will not share your details with anyone else. We will keep your information private.
Support services
Sharing your experiences of racism, religious discrimination, or racial or religious vilification may be distressing, and it can help to have access to experienced support services.
We have prepared a support service and referral directory that is intended to help members of multicultural and multifaith communities find the support they need.
