AISOV

AISOV (Australian Iranian Society of Victoria) is a non-profit, non-political and non-religious community organisation supporting Iranian-Australians across Victoria. Established in 1990 and officially incorporated in 1991, AISOV focuses on building solidarity among Iranians, preserving cultural values and strengthening connections with the broader Australian community. Through year-round cultural events, social gatherings, seminars and community programs, AISOV promotes Persian language, music, art and literature, while also providing practical support in areas such as settlement, employment, social welfare, mental health and education. The organisation also publishes Golbang magazine, a quarterly Persian-language publication that showcases community news, cultural content and informative articles for Iranian families in Victoria. Run largely by volunteers, AISOV aims to be a welcoming hub where Iranians of all backgrounds can connect, celebrate their heritage and engage with Australian society in a meaningful and supportive way.
