Human Rights Education Reaches Madrid Streets Through Scientology Volunteers
Blog Article
Madrid, Spain — A community outreach initiative in Madrid has brought together Scientology volunteers, Youth for Human Rights and Fundación MEJORA to raise awareness of fundamental freedoms.
Through direct conversations with pedestrians and the distribution of educational leaflets, participants introduced the public to the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The outreach took place around Puerta del Sol, where an ongoing housing protest has drawn public attention to social rights and civic participation. The educational campaign was independent of the housing demonstrations.
The volunteers used resources from internationally established human rights education programmes supported by 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.
The programme forms part of the Church of Scientology's wider support for human rights education, rooted in the importance L. Ron Hubbard placed on fundamental freedoms.
By meeting people news eu economy 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.
