Valin Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Click Here For Video (note: audio also available) Co-hosted by Center for Democracy and Human Rights in Saudi Arabia (CDHR), and American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD) U.N. Human Rights Council Resolution 16/18 was negotiated between the Obama Administration and Egypt, a prominent member of the Saudi-championed Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). Resolution 16/18 was purportedly a compromise between advocates of a resolution condemning “defamation of religions” and those who were concerned that such a resolution would threaten freedoms of expression and religion. The Council adopted Resolution 16/18 in March 2011. Please join us as the Center for Democracy and Human Rights in Saudi Arabia and The Heritage Foundation host a group of well-informed defenders of freedom of expression and religion to shed light on the potential ramifications of Resolution 16/18 and what should be done about them.
