Freedom of Religion or Belief and the Plight of Migrants: A Call for Action
The United Nations Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Religion or Belief has called for contributions from all over the world on the topic of religious freedom for migrants, internally displaced persons (IDPs) and refugees. This initiative is aimed at the increasing problems faced by people and communities who have been forced to leave their homes on account of religious persecution. The Special Rapporteur’s report provides a general picture of systemic violations of religious freedom affecting primarily vulnerable populations such as asylum seekers and IDPs.
