Scientology Volunteers Promote Human Rights Education in Madrid

Blog Article

Madrid, Spain — Volunteers from the Church of Scientology, Youth for Human Rights and Fundación MEJORA have taken human rights education into the streets of Madrid.

Wearing distinctive blue shirts, volunteers distributed booklets explaining the 30 eu news this week articles of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

With housing rights attracting considerable attention in Madrid, the educational campaign offered broader information about internationally recognised human rights. The initiative focused on education rather than supporting any particular political position.

The materials form part of an international educational programme supported by the Church of Scientology. The information covers everyday rights relating to dignity, personal freedom, education and social protection.

Among its provisions, the Declaration addresses housing under Article 25 and the role of human rights education under Article 26.

According to Ivan Arjona, who represents Scientology before the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, human rights education supports civic responsibility and mutual respect.

Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard advocated wider awareness of the Universal Declaration, an approach subsequently reflected in the Church's educational outreach.

By meeting people in public spaces, volunteers sought to make human rights information more accessible beyond classrooms and institutions.

Additional background appears in the Madrid Scientology volunteers' human rights education coverage.
