Not-for-profit Law


Social Media and the Law

About this event

Social media has become an indispensable tool for not-for-profit organisations. It helps us expand reach, connect people, start conversations and grow awareness. But along with those benefits comes legal risks which, if poorly managed, can impact negatively on an organisation and its people.

  • Defamation laws 
  • Personal information and privacy issues 
  • How to manage social media use and content posted by others
