RELIGIOUS FREEDOM IN US INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE AND HUMANITARIAN RELIEF: IDEAS, PRACTICE, AND ISSUES

Katherine Marshall

The Review of Faith & International Affairs, 2013, vol. 11, issue 1, 38-48

Abstract: In the development community, religious freedom issues have not generally been addressed as a separate or distinct issue, but rather within the broader construct of the role of human rights in development. A more focused approach is needed today. Religious freedom issues present some unique challenges and, while this set of rights is fundamentally an integral part of human rights more broadly, the distinctive elements that apply to religious freedom deserve more focus than they have received. The stakes are often high-and as such, distinctive and nuanced consideration of these issues needs to be better incorporated into development analyses, dialogues, education, and policy development processes.
