Expanding freedom and democracy
Freedom House is founded on the core conviction that freedom flourishes in democratic nations where governments are accountable to their people.
Freedom House works to defend human rights and promote democratic change, with a focus on political rights and civil liberties. We act as a catalyst for freedom through a combination of analysis, advocacy, and action. Our analysis, focused on 13 central issues, is underpinned by our international program work.
