Scientology Volunteers Promote Human Rights Education in Madrid
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.
Wearing distinctive blue shirts, volunteers distributed booklets explaining the 30 articles of the United Nations 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. 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 news european commission institutions, highlighted the importance of citizens understanding their rights.
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.
