How Meta improves

Learn how Meta updates the Community Standards, measures results, works with others, engages with stakeholders and prioritizes content for review.
Updating our Community Standards
As the world changes, so do our Community Standards. Our Content Policy team consults with external stakeholders from around the globe to discuss potential updates.
DEEP DIVE
The Community Standards apply the same to everyone, everywhere

Measuring results
Doing something is a good start, but it isn’t enough. That’s why we report enforcement metrics publicly so people can understand and track how we’re doing over time.

Stakeholder engagement
We talk to stakeholders like civil society organizations, activist groups, thought leaders and academics to hear their expertise and feedback as we develop our Community Standards. Our Content Policy team integrates this feedback to help ensure inclusiveness, expertise and transparency throughout the policy development process.
