A U.S. religious liberty group and a Mexican development organization are holding a seminar at the United Nations to advocate the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals in a way that respects human life and the family.
"At this crucial time in history when the sanctity of life and the human family are assaulted at every turn, there is an urgent need to address delegates of the United Nation and make them aware of the importance of protecting the dignity and freedom of every human being," Alan Sears, the president, CEO and general counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom, said Sept. 18.
"Every innocent life deserves to be protected," he added.
The Sept. 19 event, scheduled for 3 p.m. Eastern Time in the Conference Building at the United Nations, aims to present solid research and development paths to U.N. delegates, dignitaries and other decision makers.
