About us:

Bangladesh Human Rights Networks (banglarights.net) actively promotes human 
rights reforms both within Bangladesh and across geographical and political 
boundaries, and support women, children, and marginalized communities in 
resisting social oppression. It looks at attempts by global forces 
(powerful governments, TNCs, international organizations) through 
surveillance, covert mechanisms and military and economic superiority to 
exploit and control smaller nations and communities.

After successful workshop February 2001 on " Effective Use of the Media and 
the Internet to Promote Human Rights", the group decided to launch 
Bangladesh first Human Rights webportal www.banglarights.net. It has made 
rapid inroads into the international scene. It is now recognized as the 
gateway to information on Human Rights in Bangladesh.

In WorldInformation.org conference, Brussels -2001, banglarights.net was 
one of the three international sites that were selected for discussion by 
an international group of NGOs and media and activist organizations.

The Mission:

The Bangladesh Human Rights Network (BHRN) is an independent platform for 
media professionals and activists who believe in a society which is 
respectful of the rights of all its members. The platform will form 
indigenous criteria for human rights practices, taking into account the 
realities of majority world countries. It will champion principles of 
democracy, give voice to people at grassroots levels and address social 
inequalities and domination at national and international levels.
