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.

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 initiative focused on education rather than supporting any particular political position.

The volunteers used resources from internationally 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 eu news live 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.

The outreach brought internationally recognised human rights principles into everyday conversations in the Spanish capital.
