What does the Paraguay report establish about fear and uncertainty?
For fear and uncertainty in Paraguay, Rage 2 Rebuild selects “Education and children’s rights” from Humanists International’s chapter dated 7 October 2021. It describes national institutions or published conditions, not family reactions, emotions or access to an individual service. Check current facts before acting.
Country chapter updated 7 October 2021 · retrieved September 5, 2026. This chapter is more than two years old. Its assessments are not confirmation of current law or a prediction about your circumstances.
Education and children’s rights
“The right to learn and to equal opportunities to access the benefits of the humanistic culture, of science, and of technology, without any discrimination, is guaranteed. “The freedom to teach, without any requirement other than suitability [idoneidad] and ethical integrity, as well as the right to a religious education and to ideological pluralism are also guaranteed.”
Freedom of expression, advocacy of humanist values
The Constitution guarantees freedom of expression and of the press, but these rights are inconsistently upheld in practice. Criminal groups and corrupt authorities often pose life dangers and threats towards journalists, especially in remote border areas leading to a climate of self-censorship. In February 2020, Brazilian journalist Lourenço “Léo” Veras was shot and killed in the border city of Pedro Juan Caballero. Veras had reported death threats from narcotraffickers.
Rights of children and adolescents
In December 2020, a draft National Plan for Childhood and Adolescence 2020-2024 – which sought to address sexual abuse, issues of violence, and the need for comprehensive sexuality education – was withdrawn for redrafting following statements made by members of the Catholic Church that argued that the Plan would promote the destruction of conservative family values.

Which Paraguay findings should I check before acting?
Rage 2 Rebuild highlights 4 published findings for fear and uncertainty in Paraguay. Our selection connects the 7 October 2021 chapter with permission to question, inherited certainty and daily choices. Each quote is separate from our practical question. It identifies something to investigate, not a conclusion about your household.
Some concerns about political or media freedoms, not specific to the non-religious
This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.
A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?
Expression of core humanist principles on democracy, freedom or human rights is somewhat restricted
This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.
A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?
Concerns that secular or religious authorities interfere in specifically religious freedoms
This finding is about institutional arrangements. It does not establish the beliefs of a resident, a relative or a specific official.
A question to verify: Which named institution is involved in this decision, and what current written rule should be checked?
There is state funding of at least some religious schools
The source finding concerns education or children. National arrangements and the policy of one school are not interchangeable.
A question to verify: What does the named school currently require, what alternative exists, and who is responsible for the decision?
How can I live with uncertainty after religion?
For fear and uncertainty in Paraguay, Rage 2 Rebuild suggests this decision: Identify one question and decide what kind of answer would actually help. The two starting points below address permission to question, inherited certainty and daily choices. Check consequential facts with appropriate current help; these are reflection prompts, not a certified procedure.
Sort the question before searching again
Some questions are factual and can be investigated through evidence. Some are philosophical and remain contested. Others are practical: where to live, what to tell somebody or how to spend the day. Treating all three as the same problem can keep you reading without getting closer to the decision you face.
Give inquiry a boundary
If you keep returning to the same frightening argument, notice the pattern: the question, the search, the temporary relief and the return. That observation does not diagnose a condition. It can tell you whether another search is serving understanding or simply repeating the cycle.

How did religious identity change in Paraguay?
Rage 2 Rebuild’s Paraguay table shows 0.5% religiously unaffiliated in 2010 and 4.2% in 2020, using Pew’s all-age population estimates. The seven categories describe religious identity, not how many individuals left religion or experienced harm. Rounded population changes cannot predict acceptance, guilt, safety or a support outcome.
| Identity | 2010 | 2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian | 96.8% | 93.5% | -3.3 pp |
| Muslim | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Religiously unaffiliated | 0.5% | 4.2% | +3.7 pp |
| Buddhist | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Hindu | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Jewish | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Other religions | 2.7% | 2.2% | -0.5 pp |
“Other religions” combines traditions that cannot be analyzed separately here. A “less than” input stays an inequality; a change involving it is not calculated. Rounding and demographic processes matter. Nationality does not establish anyone’s beliefs.
