The World Religions and Spirituality Project (WRSP, formerly known as the New Religious Movements Homepage Project[1]) publishes academic profiles of new and established religious movements, archive material related to some groups, and articles that provide context for the profiles.[2][3] It is referenced by scholars,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] journalists,[12][13][14] and human rights groups[15] to provide a scholarly representation of threatened communities.
