Alongside advocacy efforts, targeted programming is a tool certain governments and intergovernmental agencies use to strengthen religious freedom. There have been several key programs that have advanced international religious freedom in Asia, including the now terminated USAID’s Asia Religious and Ethnic Freedom (REF) program and the United Nation’s Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar (IIMM).
On this episode of the USCIRF Spotlight podcast, Chair Vicky Hartzler speaks with Nolen Deibert, former Chief of Party of the USAID-funded Asia Religious and Ethnic Freedom (REF), as well as Nicholas Koumjian, the Head of the Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar (IIMM). They focus their discussion on the benefits of programming that advances religious freedom, particularly in Asia.
