Professor José Brissos-Lino was a speaker at an event held at Universidade Lusófona on 12 October, promoted by AECE - Associação de Escritores Cristãos Evangélicos (Association of Evangelical Christian Writers) and with the support of the Area of Science of Religions.

The lecturer, a member of LusoGlobe and Coordinator of the Instituto de Cristianismo Contemporâneo (Institute of Contemporary Christianity), addressed the constitutional principles of freedom of expression, but also of conscience, assembly and association, among others, which are fundamental characteristics of democratic states of law, focusing especially on freedom of religious expression, some of its problems and limitations, but also on some forms of self-limitation by religious leaders.

The summary of the event, which also included the participation of the former president of the Portuguese Evangelical Alliance, Dr. António Calaim, was broadcast on RTP 2 in the ‘Luz das Nações’ programme:
