The Economic Freedom Foundation and the Civic Development Forum invite to the Europe Liberty Forum 2022 organized by the Atlas Network. This year, the event will be held on May 12-13 in Warsaw.
Europe Liberty Forum is one of the largest conferences of the liberty community, bringing together Atlas Network partners, think-tank representatives and liberals from around the world. The event is organized by the Atlas Network – an American non-profit organization that helps establish and strengthen a global network of free-market think-tanks. The organization is considered one of the most important free-market think-tanks in the United States. The conference was to be held in Kyiv, but was moved to Warsaw due to the ongoing war.
During the two days of the conference, there will be no shortage of interesting panel discussions and opportunities to meet inspiring people. Panelists include many representatives of organizations supported by the Economic Freedom Foundation in Poland – the Civil Development Forum, the Mises Institute and the Freedom and Entrepreneurship Foundation.
Speakers at the event include Johan Norberg of the Cato Institute, Brad Lips – CEO of Atlas Network, Tom G. Palmer – Vice President of Atlas Network, Leszek Balcerowicz – former Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Ivan Miklos – former Minister of Finance from Slovakia, Marek Tatala – CEO of EFF, Sierž Naurodski of CASE Belarus, Nataliya Melnyk of Ukraine’s Bendukidze Free Market Center and many others from Europe and the US.
The conference will cover important and current topics such as how to preserve Ukraine’s freedoms and independence, how we can achieve energy independence in Europe, or what are the common misconceptions about liberalism and how to combat them.
The conference will be held in Warsaw’s Sofitel Hotel. The organizers do not anticipate an online broadcast.
The registration form can be found on the Atlas Network website. There is a fee to attend the conference, and the panels will be held in English. There will be a discount for students.
