Our Work Areas

International conventions, and more specifically the Convention on the Rights of the Child, protect the child's right to freedom of religion or belief.

States parties to international human rights treaties have an obligation to investigate the bias motivation for crimes that interfere with a human right.

Collective rights such as establishing a place of worship, gaining legal personality, and freedom of association are among the rights of religious or belief communities.

The right to freedom of religion or belief also guarantees the right of conscientious or religious/belief-based objection to military service.

Regardless of their gender, freedom of religion or belief protects everyone's right to conform/not to conform to social and religious norms and everyone against violence and discrimination.
