Scientology Volunteers Promote Human Rights Education in Madrid

MADRID, Spain — Residents and visitors in central Madrid have encountered volunteers sharing educational resources on human rights as part of a Scientology-supported initiative.

Through direct conversations with pedestrians and the distribution of educational leaflets, eu news this week participants introduced the public to the principles of the 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 educational campaign was independent of the housing demonstrations.

The initiative draws on educational resources developed by Youth for Human Rights International and United for Human Rights. 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.

Ivan Arjona, Scientology's representative to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, connected the initiative with Europe's commitment to human dignity and fundamental freedoms.

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

Further details are available in the Scientology human rights education report from Madrid.
