Friedrich Naumann Stiftung für die Freiheit

The Friedrich Naumann Foundation provides offers pertaining to liberal political education in Germany and around the world. Through our activities, we create new momentum for liberalism. Through consulting, events, publications and public relations work, we empower people to actively engage with politics, and make the case for freedom. The North America Regional Office in Washington, D.C. is composed of two pillar programs. The Transatlantic Dialogue Program fosters political dialogue among political, business, scientific and cultural multipliers from the US, Canada and Germany and develops innovative liberal approaches and solutions to transatlantic issues. The World Order and Globalization Hub fosters dialogue among political, business and scientific multipliers by encouraging increased mutual understanding within the global economic landscape. Both initiatives seek to facilitate a transfer of knowledge among experts in order to make a worldwide contribution to social and economic progress.www.freiheit.org
