Creating Change in Your Organisation

"Working with BIHR had allowed us to move towards a culture of human rights which is bought into by everyone working in the organisation regardless of job title. We opted for BIHR consultancy to ensure that we all work from a rights based approach and not out own individual values.”   Freedom From Torture staff member 

“BIHR staff are really good trainers. They are encouraging and supportive. They are incredibly knowledgeable and yet never make anyone feel inferior. I know that sounds like a small thing, but it’s not – as it allows people to grow and develop.”    Sarah Jay, Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust 


At BIHR we aim for the light bulb moments - when people make the connection between human rights and the work they do every day. We move human rights from the law books to everyday life, using real examples and a practical human rights based approach.

Organisations work better when they use a human rights based approach, staff have an effective decision making framework and those that use the service are empowered to know and use their rights.

Using our expertise and practical knowledge, we will work with you to create a bespoke plan for change, embedding a human rights based approach in your organisation. Helping your organisation respect and protect human rights, a legal duty which is set out in the Human Rights Act.

Don't just take our word for it, in this video some of our public and third sectors partners talk about what is it like to work with us.



If you would like to discuss a project for change in your organanisation, contact please contact Rephael Akpan on email or call 0207 882 5851.
