Exercises to introduce human rights
Freedom of religion or belief is just one of our human rights and it's closely intertwined with many other rights. It's important that participants in FORB trainings have a basic understanding of human rights in general, before going looking at the topic of freedom of religion or belief in particular. Here are some exercises to help you introduce the history, contents and purpose of human rights.
