WHAT IS INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM?
Freedom of belief, conscience, and practice are fundamental human rights for every individual no matter where they live or what they believe. They are part of constitutions, conventions, and declarations all around the world. It is enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Learn more about the breadth and depth of how this right is recognized globally.

IRF Roundtable
The IRF Roundtable uses the Speak Freedom Center as it's digital partner. As a multi-faith initiative, they have 250 participant organizations from every faith background, including large NGOs, diaspora groups, religious communities, and others. They interact with government, embassies, and more. They have NGO sign-on letters that reach the highest levels of the US Government.
ICON: Stand with Nigeria
The International Committee on Nigeria works to encourage both Americans and members of the Nigerian Diaspora to work for new U.S. personnel and policy to support the rule-of-law, and justice in Nigeria. They have embedded a Speak Freedom form that lets people across the USA type in their address and directly contact their Congress person to "Stand with Nigeria."
ONE BODY NIGHT OF PRAYER
One Body is an inter-denominational group that prays for the broad Christian Church as brothers and sisters and for other persecuted groups as neighbors. This year they used Speak Freedom Center for an easy from-the-pews sign-up for a month long commitment to pray for a particular country and persecuted people there.
