The International Panel of Parliamentarians for Freedom of Religion or Belief (IPPFoRB) is a network of parliamentarians and legislators from around the world committed to combatting religious persecution and advancing freedom of religion or belief.

90

IPPFoRB is made of parliamentarians from 90 (+ European Parliament) different countries across North and South America, Africa, Asia, Europe and Oceania.

300

Over 300 parliamentarians from around the world are members of IPPFoRB network.

70

Over 70 MPs have been trained by IPPFoRB on issues of freedom of religion or belief.

 
The role of parliamentarians in monitoring, reporting and following up on freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief cannot be overestimated. Yet, before the International Panel of Parliamentarians for Freedom of Religion or Belief (IPPFoRB) was established, we had failed to comprehensively support this important work. I welcome IPPFoRB determined contributions in addressing this lacuna.

Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.
