Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard wrote, “Human rights
must be made a fact, not an idealistic dream.”
“Scientology: How We Help—United for Human Rights, Making
Human Rights a Global Reality,” details how communities are using the Church of
Scientology’s United for Human Rights program to fight abuses in this field.
The Nashville Church of Scientology Pastor, Rev. Brian
Fesler, who chairs the Human Rights Day celebration in Tennessee, says, “Education
is the first step. People have to learn that
‘human rights’ as a topic even exists and know their rights before they can do
anything effective in implementation.”
The United for Human Rights program is based on the fact
that without basic human rights known and understood across the planet, forward
progress cannot occur. The campaign is designed to raise awareness and respect
for human rights by educating the population and simultaneously persuading
governments to uphold the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The United for Human Rights program includes education
materials with booklets on What Are Human Rights? and the Story of Human
Rights, the Story of Human Rights short film and the 30 public service
announcements which illustrate each of the points to the Universal Declaration
of Human Rights. Further, the complete education package contains all of these
things plus a complete curriculum that educators can use in classrooms. The
humanrights.com website is an interactive learning center complete with
information including all videos and downloadable materials. Lastly, a virtual
education program is available as an app downloadable for iPhones and iPads.
The Church of Scientology supports United for Human
Rights, the world’s largest nongovernmental human rights educational campaign. For
