Article 18 Petition Appeal

People around the world continue to suffer simply because of the faith they hold dear — facing discrimination, violence, imprisonment and even death. Their freedom to believe, worship and live out their faith is a basic human right, yet for millions it remains out of reach — and they need us to be their voice.

That’s why Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) has launched its first-ever global religious freedom petition, calling on national governments and the United Nations to take urgent action to protect this fundamental right. At the heart of this campaign is Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which guarantees freedom of thought, conscience and religion — including the right to change one’s belief and to practise it openly or privately.

By signing, you are standing in solidarity with those who cannot speak freely for themselves and helping to send a powerful message that religious freedom must be protected everywhere, for everyone.
