Students For Liberty is rebuilding what war and genocide threatened to destroy
“VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA!?” said one Students For Liberty staffer. “Are you kidding!?” We were not. Finally, 50 years after the Khmer Rouge’s genocidal reign of terror in Cambodia, there’s hope for the young people of that nation … and it’s because of Students For Liberty. For 50 years, young Cambodians have had no choice but […]
Students For Liberty Takes Over Washington
Over three days at the Downtown Washington, D.C. Westin hotel, LibertyCon International brought together some of the most high-profile voices in the liberty movement. But it also brought together a rising generation of students and alumni who are still finding their voices, building their platforms, and discovering their spheres of contribution. To name a few: […]
Prolific Publishing, Thanks to SFL’s Fellowship
Over the past six years, the African Liberty Writing Fellowship has had more than 7,000 young Africans apply for the program, from every country on the continent. But the ALWF is exclusive; it accepts and trains only the very best: 382 trained in public policy analysis and opinion editorial writing since 2019. And 134 of […]
Living Liberty in Lviv, Ukraine
The story of Ukrainian Renaissance is almost too crazy to believe. In the summer of 2023, in the city of Ivano-Frankivsk, our Czech volunteer and Student of the Year nominee Štěpán Kovář organized a partnership with a local private hospital that had started treating wounded Ukrainian soldiers. It led to the development of Ukrainian Renaissance, […]
More than a Moral Victory in Venezuela
Venezuela’s Students For Liberty, led by Oriana Aranguren and Carlos Infante, won the Group of the Year Award at LibertyCon International in February 2025. They earned it by organizing 241 events, which reached more than 3,400 people, despite the danger of speaking out against a government that literally made the term “neoliberal” illegal. Sometimes, that […]
Remember, Remember the Twelfth of November (and the 23rd of July)
November 12, 2024 could go down as a critical date in the history of Bhutan, the small nation on the eastern edge of the Himalaya Mountains. That’s when Students For Liberty turned the tide there by hosting a workshop in Thimpu, Bhutan. This breakthrough event for SFL generated 29 applications to our Student Leadership Program […]
Brazil: A Bastion for Liberty
Students For Liberty recently reached an all-time high: We have student leaders in 116 countries, having added 15 new countries over the past year, including five in Africa, three in Eastern Europe (Ukraine, most notably), and war-torn but rebuilding Syria. However, Brazil remains SFL’s shining star. Q1 of last year saw a record 38 events, […]
Milei is a friend to Students For Liberty
Long before Javier Milei was the president of a country, he was speaking at Students For Liberty events. He appreciated our mission early on; he understood that to change Argentina’s political future, he had to change the way the rising generation thinks — and that SFL could help him do that. And so, in December […]
A Major Supreme Court Victory for Liberty in Sri Lanka
On July 13, 2022, Namini Panditha was a freshly minted SFL alumnus in Sri Lanka, had just started her career as an attorney, and just days earlier had founded the Liberal Youth Movement (LYM) — an independent, youth-led initiative dedicated to defending liberty, rule of law, individual dignity, and democratic accountability. But Sri Lanka was […]
Killing Canada’s Carbon Tax
Many years from now, when textbooks about the history of Canada are written, they might just say: It all changed at an SFL training. A Canadian named Garreth Conner was at a conference for some of the most active volunteers of Students For Liberty’s North America region. While relaxing after a long day of learning […]
