VIC | VMC | STANDING | Together Against Hate – Sign the Statement of Unity and Solidarity | Thursday 18 December 2025

[Edited extract from public address]

Victorian multicultural and multifaith leaders came together with the Premier of Victoria, the Hon Jacinta Allan, to stand united against hate and violence. 

This powerful moment of solidarity sends a clear message: We stand together as one and our communities will not be divided.

At this meeting, attended by the Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Victorian Multicultural Commission and Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police, community leaders signed a Statement of Condolence and Solidarity. This statement reaffirms our shared commitment to a Victoria that is safe, inclusive and respectful for all. 
Show your support for a Victoria that celebrates diversity and rejects hate. We invite you to join us in this commitment by signing the Statement of Unity and Solidarity today. 

Together, we can ensure Victoria remains a place where diversity is celebrated and hate has no home. Let us continue to work together to promote safety and unity.

Vivienne Nguyen AM, Chairperson
