United for Human Rights is an international human rights education campaign supported by the Church of Scientology and dedicated to raising awareness and understanding of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Through booklets, films and online resources, the campaign makes the 30 rights set out in the Declaration accessible and understandable, encouraging everyone to respect and uphold these rights in everyday life.

The campaign was inspired by the work of humanitarian and Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard, who emphasised that spiritual freedom and enlightenment were difficult to achieve if people were denied their most fundamental human rights.
