Our Commitment for Human Rights

Since its internationalization in 1993, the United Evangelical Mission has been committed to justice, peace and the integrity of creation. The book series "For Human Rights" documents this work and provides insights into the various challenges member churches have faced in recent decades. The texts show both concrete human rights concerns at the local level in Africa, Asia and Europe, as well as common concerns of people worldwide.

30 Years for Human Rights!

More than 30 years ago, the United Evangelical Mission defined the joint advocacy of justice, peace and the integrity of creation as one of the central commitments of its joint missionary activity in its constitution and implemented it as part of its own program on December 1, 1993. The aim was and still is to network the member churches of the UEM and to support them in their efforts to build solidarity and advocacy for all those affected by war, injustice and violence. 
On the occasion of 30 years of "Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation", the UEM is publishing a roadmap to date with core concerns and activities.
