APPG FoRB student event

On 25 November 2025, we brought together over 40 students, young adults and FoRB advocates to celebrate the growing momentum behind youth-led action for religious freedom. The evening highlighted the belief that young people, with energy, fresh perspectives, and commitment to justice, are essential to sustaining long-term progress on freedom of religion or belief (FoRB). A key focus of the meeting was the public launch of the UK FoRB Student Council of Ambassadors (FSCA), the young adult-focused arm of the FoRB Foundation. The FSCA brings together individuals and youth-led organisations aged 18–25, offering training, networking, and a structured pathway for participation in both grassroots and parliamentary advocacy. The FSCA represents a vital step in giving young advocates a seat at the table, offering opportunities to engage with policy, design campaigns, and work in close collaboration with the All‑Party Parliamentary Group for Freedom of Religion or Belief (APPG FoRB).
