Paragraph text
The present report complements and supplements the excellent work undertaken by the Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief, Heiner Bielefeldt, which has addressed challenges to freedom of religion experienced by religious minorities. The Independent Expert particularly welcomes the report of the Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief (A/HRC/22/51), which addressed the protection of the freedom of religion or belief of persons belonging to religious minorities, with a focus on conceptual clarifications and violations - both multifaceted motives and settings of violations and specific areas of violations against religious minorities.
