Lifting the Spirit: Human Rights and Freedom of Religion or Belief is intended to further an understanding of human rights in general, especially the human right to freedom of religion or belief. This curriculum is not a survey of world religions, although it might compliment such a course; instead it relates worship, observances, practices and teachings of all religions and beliefs to fundamental human rights principles. Designed for use in secondary school classrooms, religious institutions and youth advocacy organizations around the world, both content and organization aims to be adaptable to many different national and cultural settings.
