IAF 2013 Programme

The Foundation established the International Academy for Leadership (IAF) as a forum and venue for international political dialogue, first in Sintra (Portugal), in the early 1990s, and later on in Gummersbach (Germany), at the Theodor Heuss Academy, in 1995. Participants from all over the world find here an opportunity to share political experiences, address cultural issues and jointly seek liberal solutions to current problems.

FNF in Malaysia

Malaysia gained independence from Britain in 1957. Since then, a coalition led by the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) has ruled the country. The government restricts freedom of expression and assembly. An “Internal Security Act” allows for detention without trial for up to two years.

FNF has been working in Malaysia for more than 20 years. We promote democracy and liberalism. FNF cooperates with political parties, civil society organisations, think tanks and a media organisation.
