Report on International Religious Freedom
The US Commission on International Religious Freedom just released its 2007 report.
As established in 1998 by the International Religious Freedom Act, the Commission's report is designed to evaluate religious freedom in countries across the world, and make recommendations to the President and Secretary of State as they identify those countries that have engaged in egregious violations of the right to religious freedom. The 2007 recommendations of these "Countries of Particular Concern" include Burma, North Korea, Eritrea, Iran, Pakistan, China, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam.
At almost 300 pages, the report is not an easy read, but if you are interested in reading about countries in which Remember currently has ongoing work here is a mini table of contents:
