About Stuart Windsor and CSW

StuartWindsorStuart Windsor was Christian Solidarity Worldwide’s National Director for 19 years and is now CSW’s Special Ambassador. Throughout his time with CSW Stuart has seen their work achieve a high profile for advocacy on religious freedom throughout the world.

Stuart has travelled extensively to countries where Christians and others suffer persecution for their religious beliefs. He has carried out briefings in the US Congress and Senate, given evidence in hearings at the UN High Commission for Refugees and has spoken at the European and UK parliaments. In recent years, his work has involved securing the safety of several Pakistani Christian families who were subject to persecution. Stuart is married to Ethel and they have two children.

 

CSW works in over 20 countries across Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin CSWWAmerica, defending everyone’s right to freedom of religion or belief.

Three quarters of the world’s population lives in countries with severe restrictions on their religious freedom – in fact, it’s one of the most widely-violated human rights in the world.

CSW think this is unacceptable and are working to change it. Their vision is of a world where everyone is free to choose their beliefs – to hold and practise any religion they like, or none at all.
