Respect people and communities

Disagree with ideas without harassing, threatening or demeaning people. Hate, intimidation, targeted abuse and calls for violence are not permitted.

Be accurate and fair

Share claims you can reasonably support, give context, distinguish allegations from verified findings and correct errors. Do not impersonate officials or organisations.

Protect privacy

Do not post private addresses, phone numbers, identification records or other personal information about someone without a proper basis. Avoid identifying vulnerable individuals unnecessarily.

Use authentic participation

No automated signatures, fake accounts, purchased engagement, coordinated harassment or misleading petition statistics. Campaign organisers must not manufacture endorsements.

Upload lawful content

Use images, video and documents you have permission to share. Do not post non-consensual intimate imagery, harmful exploitation material or content that endangers others.

Moderation and appeals

Reports may lead to temporary restrictions, edits, removal or account action. Affected users can contact AfricaChange to request clarification or review, subject to available safeguards and applicable law.

Constructive civic action

Encourage peaceful participation and lawful engagement. Make specific requests of decision-makers without implying AfricaChange has verified or endorsed every campaign.
