The Glasgow Black
and Ethnic Minority Voluntary Sector Network (GBEMVSN)
is an umbrella organisation of black-led groups and organizations
in the greater Glasgow area. It aims to provide a consultative
forum for its members and to be a vehicle for raising awareness
of issues affecting black and minority ethnic (BME) communities
in the city. The Network was formally constituted in June 2000,
having been in existence since 1997 and currently has membership
of around 40 groups and individuals, with access to over 200 in
mailing lists. The network developed as a response to the disadvantage
and feeling of exclusion felt by many working in the voluntary
sector with or in BME organizations relative to the broader voluntary
sector in Glasgow.
It is recognised by Glasgow City Council as
the representative voluntary sector body for consultation on black
and minority ethnic issues. The network has 3 representatives
on Glasgow's Equality Network Forum, chaired by Councilor Irfan
Rabbani.
