Religious Freedom

The right to religious freedom is one of the freedom rights enounced in 1948 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

A person’s religious freedom is calculated on a variety of factors, such as the possibility of changing religion, or of abandoning a religion without limitations or retaliation by authorities, or having the same rights as citizens with a different religious belief, or non being discriminated for the religious belief.

Today, religious freedom is safeguarded in most of the modern nations, nationally through Constitutions and internationally through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
