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.
The initiative involved volunteers handing out accessible educational materials about equality, human dignity and fundamental freedoms.
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 Scientology any particular political position.
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.
The Universal Declaration connects human dignity with social protections and recognises education as an important means of advancing respect for fundamental freedoms.
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 Church's involvement in human rights education reflects an emphasis on fundamental freedoms expressed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
The outreach brought internationally recognised human rights principles into everyday conversations in the Spanish capital.
Further details are available in the Scientology human rights education report from Madrid.
