Human Rights for Youth and Scientology’s Community Focus
BRUSSELS, Belgium — 29 January 2026 — Human-rights education initiatives supported by the Church of Scientology through United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights International continue to frame the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) as an accessible, practical reference for everyday civic life—particularly for young people, educators and community-based organisations in increasingly diverse European societies.
United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights expand rights-literacy resources used by educators, civic groups and local partners across Europe
BRUSSELS, Belgium — 29 January 2026 — Human-rights education initiatives supported by the Church of Scientology through United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights International continue to frame the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) as an accessible, practical reference for everyday civic life—particularly for young people, educators and community-based organisations in increasingly diverse European societies.
The approach centres on a straightforward premise: that rights are more likely to be respected when they are widely understood. The UDHR—adopted by the UN General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948—sets out 30 articles describing fundamental rights and freedoms and is among the most translated documents in the world.
Addressing a persistent “knowledge gap” about rights
Organisers involved in rights-education efforts frequently point to a challenge that is not limited to any one country: many people endorse the idea of “human rights” in principle, but have limited familiarity with what the UDHR actually says—how it defines non-discrimination, due process, freedom of thought and conscience, education, and other core protections.
On its European human-rights information pages, the Church of Scientology describes the decision to focus educational materials around the UDHR as a response to surveys indicating limited public awareness of the Declaration and its 30 rights. It also shows that multimedia materials used in the campaign reach large audiences annually, emphasising communication formats that can be used in classrooms, community settings and civic presentations.
Human-rights education as a concept is also rooted in the Declaration’s own framing: the UN’s human-rights office notes the UDHR’s emphasis on promoting respect for rights through “teaching and education.”
Two complementary programmes: United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights
United for Human Rights (UHR) states that it was founded on the 60th anniversary of the UDHR, with the goal of supporting individuals and organisations with educational tools intended to broaden awareness and encourage implementation of the rights described in the Declaration.
Youth for Human Rights International (YHRI) is a well known non-profit organisation founded in 2001 by educator Dr. Mary Shuttleworth, with a focus on teaching young people about the UDHR and encouraging a culture of tolerance and peace in their everyday environments.
Both programmes their work primarily as education and public information, using a consistent structure that maps learning modules and media resources to the UDHR’s 30 articles. The initiatives, proudly sponsored and supported by the Church of Scientology, are established as nonreligious organisations and the resources are used by a range of entities—from schools and civic groups to law-enforcement and governmental bodies—depending on national context and local partnerships.
A toolkit model: short films, PSAs and structured learning materials
A recurring feature of the campaigns is a “toolkit” approach: short, adaptable resources designed for different audiences and educational settings. The educational package includes a short documentary film (“The Story of Human Rights”), along with a series of public service announcements aligned to each UDHR right (“30 Rights, 30 Ads”).
The components and interactive websites host resources across 17 languages, allowing educators and organisers to use consistent content while adapting delivery to local needs and age groups.
While approaches vary by country and community, the practical objective is broadly the same: improving everyday understanding of what rights mean in real situations—at school, at work, in public services and in civic participation—so that rights language becomes clearer and less abstract.
The Church of Scientology’s involvement and L. Ron Hubbard’s emphasis on rights and dignity
The Church of Scientology’s involvement in human-rights education is part of a wider set of community and social-betterment initiatives focused on prevention and education. Its European human-rights page links the emphasis on rights awareness to the early writings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, stating that spiritual freedom and enlightenment are difficult to attain for individuals denied fundamental human rights, and citing the Code of a Scientologist as calling on members to support humanitarian endeavours in the field of human rights.
The same published material presents this as a longstanding orientation: a rights-awareness effort organised through cooperation with a mix of governmental and non-governmental actors, using the UDHR as a shared reference point across cultures and belief systems.
Rights literacy as a European civic skill
Ivan Arjona-Pelado, Scientology’s representative to the European Union, the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the United Nations, framed the programmes’ emphasis on education as aligned with European civic expectations:
“Human rights are not strengthened only by legal texts; they are strengthened when people can recognise them, explain them, and apply them in daily interactions—especially in schools and neighbourhoods where diversity is a lived reality. Europe’s democratic culture benefits when young people learn the UDHR’s principles early and see respect, equality and non-discrimination as practical responsibilities.”
The focus going into 2026 is on ensuring materials remain available and usable in real-world educational contexts—clear language, short formats, and modular content that supports lesson plans and community discussions without requiring specialist legal knowledge. In practice, this typically translates into training sessions for educators and youth workers, informational workshops in community settings, and partnerships with civil-society organisations whose work intersects with youth inclusion, anti-bullying, equal treatment and intercultural dialogue.
The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across the European continent. Scientology Europe reports a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.

CGTN published an article highlighting how China and Russia are deepening strategic coordination, economic cooperation and people-to-people exchanges during Russian President Vladimir Putin’s state visit to China. By combining trade data, historical context and expert analysis, the piece emphasizes the resilience of bilateral ties and their role in promoting a multipolar world order.
Bilateral trade has topped $200 billion for three consecutive years; more than 70% of China-Europe freight trains now pass through Russia en route to Europe; ten China-Russia Expos have been held; over 170 pairs of sister cities and provinces have been established, reflecting the growing depth and breadth of bilateral cooperation. In recent years, China-Russia collaboration has expanded across multiple sectors, yielding tangible results.
On Wednesday, the two heads of state once again witnessed the signing of multiple cooperation documents covering trade, education, technology and other areas during Putin’s state visit to China, fueling a new era of partnership between the two neighboring major countries.
During their meeting, Chinese President Xi Jinping stressed that China-Russia relations have now reached the highest level in history as a comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for a new era and that the two sides should seize the momentum to align China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) with Russia’s development strategy through 2030, and deepen cooperation to serve the development and rejuvenation of both countries.
The two leaders also agreed to extend the China-Russia Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation and issued a joint statement on enhancing comprehensive strategic coordination, deepening good-neighborliness and friendly cooperation.
China-Russia relations set example for major countries
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the China-Russia strategic partnership of coordination and the 25th anniversary of the treaty, which defines the relationship as “non-alliance, non-confrontation and not targeting any third party” and enshrines the principle of “ever-lasting friendship and never becoming enemies.”
Xi noted that the treaty legally established a long-term foundation for neighborly friendship and comprehensive strategic cooperation, which has enabled a leap forward in bilateral relations. He said that China will work with Russia to uphold the spirit of the treaty and firmly advance China-Russia back-to-back strategic coordination.
Li Yongquan, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the China-Russia relationship, based on “non-alliance, non-confrontation, and not targeting any third party,” transcends ideology and political systems and rests firmly on shared long-term interests and a commitment to a multipolar world. Their relationship offers a new model for major countries to get along with each other, Li said.
Since the treaty’s signing, political trust between the two countries has deepened. Annual presidential visits have become a routine, and multiple cooperation mechanisms have been established, including regular meetings between prime ministers, the China-Russia Energy Cooperation Committee, the Strategic Security Consultation Mechanism and the China-Russia Committee on Cultural Cooperation.
These mechanisms have played an irreplaceable role in promoting pragmatic cooperation, resolving bilateral issues and coordinating positions on multilateral international affairs.
China, Russia: Pillars of a multipolar world
During their talks, Xi stressed the importance of deepening multilateral coordination, safeguarding the post-war international order and international law and promoting the building of a more just and reasonable global governance system.
China and Russia have long supported each other on key issues of mutual concern. They have jointly promoted the establishment of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS and trilateral mechanisms such as China-Russia-India and China-Russia-Mongolia cooperation. They also continue to coordinate on international platforms, such as the UN and APEC, advocating for greater representation of developing countries in global governance and promoting a multipolar, inclusive global order.
Russia is the first country Xi visited after taking office as Chinese president. Putin last year visited China to attend the SCO summit and commemorative events marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
During Wednesday’s meeting, Putin stated that China-Russia relations have stood the test of time and grown increasingly resilient and that China-Russia cooperation is an important stabilizing factor in the turbulent world.
Cooperation boosts shared development, people-to-people exchanges
Deep political trust and close strategic alignment between the two countries has enabled steady progress in trade, culture and people-to-people exchanges, ushering China-Russia relations into a new phase of development.
Despite a complex international environment, China-Russia cooperation has shown resilience. According to China’s Ministry of Commerce, bilateral trade reached $227.9 billion in 2025, surpassing the $200 billion mark for the third consecutive year. In the first quarter of this year, bilateral trade totaled $61.2 billion, up 14.7% year on year.
Currently, the 10th China-Russia Expo is being held in Harbin, northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province, attracting nearly 300 Russian enterprises. Meanwhile, China and Russia introduced a mutual visa-free policy in 2025, triggering a tourism boom between the two countries.
The two countries have also jointly organized a range of exchange programs over the years, including the language year, tourism year, youth exchange year and cultural year. Last year, the “China-Russia Year of Culture” concluded successfully, while this year’s “China-Russia Year of Education” is expected to further strengthen generational friendship and consolidate the foundation for long-term mutual understanding between the two peoples.
