CAJ is an independent human rights organisation working since 1981 to ensure the protection and promotion of human rights of all those in Northern Ireland by reference to internationally agreed human rights standards.

Our work programmes focus on:

• Monitoring policing and the accountability mechanisms;
  
• Monitoring the criminal justice system;
• Seeking the promotion of equality by public authorities;
• Enhancing rights protection through a strong Bill of Rights, scrutiny by international mechanisms and the development of a human rights culture.

Our work includes:

• Independent human rights policy analysis and commentary in our four specialised fields - policing, criminal justice, equality and the protection of rights;
• Organisation of free conferences and seminars in the above fields attracting international speakers and analysis;
• Bill of Rights and wider human rights training provided free to community and voluntary sector organisations;
• Monthly newsletter and e-newsletter analysing latest developments in domestic and international human rights.
