<p>The Prime Minister's Special Envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB), Fiona
Bruce, as chair of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance, is working
to bolster international action on FoRB and seeking to improve the safety of persecuted
religious minorities. At the UK-led Ministerial Conference on FoRB last year, we announced
funding to support FoRB defenders, and provide expertise to assist countries with
legislative changes to protect FoRB. In June we secured language in a Security Council
resolution which directly addresses the persecution of religious minorities. We continue
to use our position at the UN to highlight FoRB violations and abuses and help improve
the lives of those affected.</p>
