Overview
Freedom House, America’s longest-standing nonprofit dedicated to promoting freedom and democracy, was founded in 1941 as a bipartisan voice to counter the isolationist sentiment that swept the country in response to WWII. According to the most recent Freedom House assessments, democracy in the world has declined for the 13th consecutive year, meaning that its work is as important now as ever. The organization analyzes the challenges to freedom in its research and annual publications, advocates for political and civil rights, and supports frontline activists promoting democratic change abroad. Ultimately, Freedom House seeks to catalyze a movement of renewed support for and commitment to liberal democratic values at home and abroad.
