The Bulgarian Helsinki Committee (BHC) has launched a campaign which aims to promote human rights, the press center of the organization said. For the purpose, a special page has been created on the Bulgarian Helsinki Committee’s website.
BHC tells about various rights in 17 fundamental areas: freedom of expression, the right to protection from torture, the right to be free from inhuman or degrading treatment, the right to freedom of association and peaceful assembly, etc. Others target people with disabilities, refugees and representatives of minorities. The page will be linked to videos and images spread in various media, organisations and social networks, as well as in some of the major Bulgarian cities.
