In Depth:  Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW)

A cross-denominational group of Christian leaders launched an unprecedented campaign in late September to push for comprehensive protections for freedom of religion or belief (FoRB) in the new constitution, which is undergoing public consultation.

Led by the Methodist Church of Cuba and Assemblies of God leaders, the church leaders encouraged Cubans to sign a petition which calls for the addition of two sections to Article 15 of the new Cuban constitution, which will allow them to freely ‘practice their faith and impact the life of the people through the Word of Christ and through all the social programs that the Christian Church is already implementing.’
