Foundation Name Change Reflects
Broadened Human Rights Agenda

The Chairman of the Foundation for Religious Tolerance United Kingdom are pleased to announce the Foundation's new name:

Foundation for Human Rights and Tolerance United Kingdom.

Born out of the expansion of the Foundation for Religious Tolerance, the new name reflects a broadened agenda made necessary by severe human rights violations in near and far quarters of the globe. Moreover, it best describes the mandate of Foundation members to take effective action to ensure that all people have the basic rights and freedoms as set forth in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The Foundation for Human Rights and Tolerance United Kingdom, with the support of its growing membership, will continue the mission and activities of the original Foundation. Freedom of religion and belief are taken for granted by some who do not realize the extent of abuse that exists in often surprising places. The Foundation will continue to expand its programes to educate in the fields of human rights and tolerance, particularly the youth of the world. Supporters will find more opportunities to take effective action than before.

The Foundation is a non-profit association that was established in 2001. Today its executives and members are of multiple faiths and ethnicity. For more information, read the History of the Foundation and find out about our Goals and Purposes.
