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 activity coincided with public discussions in Spain's capital about housing, freedom of expression and peaceful assembly. The initiative focused on education rather than supporting any particular political position.
The volunteers used resources from internationally news european parliament established human rights education programmes supported by Scientology. The publications introduce fundamental principles including non-discrimination, freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and the right to education.
Among its provisions, the Declaration addresses housing under Article 25 and the role of human rights education under Article 26.
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 Church's involvement in human rights education reflects an emphasis on fundamental freedoms expressed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
By meeting people 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.
