About BRC

The Black Researcher Consortium (BRC) is a newly formed community interest company (C.I.C.), designed, developed and built by people with Black heritage, for people with Black heritage. The Consortium objects are to address the systemic underrepresentation of Black researchers across educational institutions, research organisations, government, and industry environments in collaboration with Black researchers, Black-led community initiatives and all those bridging the systemic gap, connecting Black researchers.

​

By ‘Black’ we mean anyone who identifies as having Black or Black British African, Black or Black British Caribbean, Mixed/Multi-ethnic Black or Black British or any other Black or Black British background.

Interviews, focus groups, workshops have provided an initial proposal and draft business plan. The Consortium founding interim Board are conducting an open recruitment process for the leaders who will develop the Consortium into a useful resource for Black Researchers.
