Friedrich Naumann Foundation For Freedom

The Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) is the German Foundation for Liberal Politics. Established in 1958 by Prof. Theodor Heuss, the first President of the Federal Republic of Germany, FNF promotes liberal values, above all the freedom of the individual for his and her pursuit of happiness.
FNF promotes liberal thinking and liberal policies in cooperation with local partners through activities of civic education, international political dialogue, and political counseling. Our civic education activities consist of seminars, conferences and publications aimed at promoting liberal values and policies. Political counseling is mainly given to liberal political parties in order to improve their programmatic basis, their strategic orientation and their political communication with citizens. We cooperate with political parties worldwide because we believe in party-based democracy.
