Ressources on fundamental rights

From our Chicago2016-conference we came home to continue our work in three working groups, one of them is the “Fundamental rights in the Church ” Group. Here we present their materials as soon as the groups have further things to share or materials they think is valuable.

Further resources will be put on this website, as soon as available.
