Sign the Satement Faith in Human Rights

On December 10th 2008, on the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the Peace Palace, The Hague, the Netherlands, in the presence of Her Majesty Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, high-ranking religious leaders representing the world religions and spiritual traditions, signed the Statement Faith in Human Rights.

In doing so, they jointly pronounce and confirm symbolically for all spiritual traditions that religion defends the human rights and fundamental freedom of every human being. They signed the Statement in the presence of representatives of major religions and beliefs, who will endorse the Statement.

The Statement Faith in Human Rights may thus initiate a widening process of responsibility and commitment for religious leaders and communities to uphold human rights. We invite everybody to endorse this statement and act upon it.
