RSVP for our special zoom meeting on new Flemish legislation on religion
June 2, 10 am Brussels time
Dear participant of the FoRB Roundtable Brussels-EU,
In Belgium, the new Flemish regulations for registering religious communities, within a general climate of increased hostility to minority religions, are a cause for concern. We are planning to have some orientation papers, followed by a discussion under the Chatham House rules, during a Roundtable's meeting on June 2, 10 am to 12.
Please RSVP by answering this email. A zoom link will be sent to those who have registered.
During this meeting, we will have several presentations on this new legislation. The presenters will be:
Willy Fautre - Director, Human Rights Without Frontiers Int'l
Massimo Introvigne - Director Bitter Winter, a daily magazine on Religious Liberty
Jelle Cremers - Associate Professor, Evangelische Theologische Faculteit, Leuven
If you'd like to add your own presentation (6 or 8 minutes), please let us know in advance. We are partnering with Bitter Winter, a daily magazine on religious liberty, and Human Rights Without Frontiers. We would ask you to prepare a 1,000 to 1,500 word text of your paper to be published both by Bitter Winter and HRWF, so that it may reach a larger audience.
We hope to see you on June 2!
Regards
Eric
