The Cambridge University Students' Union BME (Black and Minority Ethnic) Campaign is an autonomous platform that exists to voice the concerns of Ethnic Minority students, both graduate and undergraduate, at the University of Cambridge.

We are here to represent minority students and to empower them to be proud of their background, enabling them to overcome adversity and any apprehension they may hold so that that they make their views heard. We seek to ensure racial equality for all students in the University, encourage BME students to fully engage with the community as a whole and to educate and inform the general population about the diversity of BME students at Cambridge. This includes campaigning for the cultural and religious needs of the range of BME Students communities.

For those of us whom have been lucky enough not to have experienced racism or other unfair disadvantages as a result of our ethnic origin, the reasons for the existence of the Campaign might not be transparent. Unfortunately, more often than not, issues such as institutional racism and student alienation go unnoticed. It is therefore the duty of the Campaign to discover the reality and inform the community.
