BLAM UK is a civil society organisation that works with the United Nations Office for the High Commissioner of Human Rights (OHCHR) to help defend the rights of Black people in the UK. We act as intervenor between the OHCHR and persons whose human rights have been breached.
We are able to support the Black British Community as a whole and Black individuals in drafting direct complaints to UN Human rights council on issues to do with human rights violations in the UK in the areas of policing, education, health care, mental health, cultural rights, children rights, women rights, intersectional rights and discrimination.
We provide intervention and support via the use of UN instruments and mechanisms to help ensure your human rights are being upheld and protected.
Human right abuses and injustices are often committed by the Duty Bearers like the government, agents of the government (like the police or the council) and private organisations; alerting the United Nations to these violations will trigger urgent special procedure process that can help to remedy the given injustice.
