LIBERAL INTERNATIONAL



Liberal International is the world federation of liberal political parties. Founded in 1947 it has become the pre-eminent network for liberal parties and for the strengthening of liberal democracy around the world.

There are a number of common principles which unite all liberal parties from Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe:
- human rights;
- free and fair elections and multiparty-democracy;
- social justice;
- tolerance;
- social market economy;
- free trade;
- environmental sustainability;
- a strong sense of international solidarity.

Naturally in the application of these principles in different national circumstances there is diversity among liberal parties.
