The Baseline Project is a multi-year project by BC’s Office of the Human Rights Commissioner that aims to monitor and evaluate the state of human rights in the province of British Columbia.
Alongside community members and organizations, this project will identify salient human rights priorities and solutions to improve human rights issues across British Columbia. By establishing a human rights baseline, we aim to influence policy, raise public awareness, and deepen relationships across B.C. to enhance capacity and build strength.

B.C.’s Human Rights Commissioner asked organizations working in community service and rights-related fields to identify their human rights priorities and concerns in a survey that ran from May 3—June 9, 2023. We appreciate those who took the time to participate and share!
Answers will inform the Commissioner’s investigation into the current state of human rights in the province and help establish a baseline from which changes in the state of human rights in B.C. can be measured. Known as the Baseline Project, this multi-year effort will identify human rights priorities and solutions to improve human rights issues across the province, with a view to influencing public policy, raising awareness of rights and deepening relationships.
