The Bulgarian Helsinki Committee has the strongest traditions in opposing racist activity. The objectives of the committee are to promote respect for the human rights, to stimulate legislative reform to bring Bulgarian legislation in line with international human rights standards, to trigger public debate on human rights issues, to carry out advocacy for the protection of human rights, and to popularise and make widely available human rights instruments.

BHC holds the main role in raising the public awareness about the problems of racism. By its research activities, the BHC attempts to fill the gaps of data availability and produces the main output of reports on the problem.
