E/CN.4/1990/46 page 63 (d) Organization, with the collaboration of UNESCO, of media briefings aimed at a broader dissemination of the principles contained in the Declaration so as to prevent the spreading of stereotypes which might lead to lack of comprehension and tolerance. 122. The Special Rapporteur wishes to insist that non-governmental organizations in general, and groups representing specific religions or ideologies in particular, can and should play an active role in assuring respect for and promoting tolerance and freedom of religion and belief by initiating an inter-denominational dialogue at the national and international levels, in the form of meetings, conferences and seminars whose topics would be aimed at emphasizing the similarities among various religions and beliefs rather than their differences. 123. Finally, victims of intolerance and discrimination based on religion or belief should have effective remedies available to them. In this connection, the Special Rapporteur is of the opinion that it would be desirable for information on the norms laid down by the 1981 Declaration to be given widespread dissemination among persons responsible for protecting the right to freedom of religion or belief, particularly lawmakers, judges, lawyers and civil servants.
