Human Rights Education Reaches Madrid Streets Through Scientology Volunteers

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.

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 any particular political position.

The initiative draws on educational resources developed by Youth for Human Rights International and United for news europe Human Rights. They explain rights such as equality before the law, freedom of religion, access to education and adequate living conditions.

Article 25 of the Universal Declaration addresses an adequate standard of living, including housing, while Article 26 emphasises education that strengthens respect for human rights.

Ivan Arjona, the Church of Scientology's representative to European and international institutions, highlighted the importance of citizens understanding their rights.

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.

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.
