The Institute for Freedom in the Americas is dedicated to fostering a culture of freedom, democracy and global governance. It prepares future leaders to make a lasting, positive impact in their communities by championing democratic values and processes. Committed to promoting civic engagement and encouraging global dialogue, the Institute serves as a beacon for advancing democratic principles worldwide.
The Fellows Program combines theoretical lectures with critical analysis, workshops, and personal research for case management. The program includes master conferences on relevant subjects and thematic axes, with a focus on interactive and practical learning experiences. Attendance at online classes, 1:1 mentorship, and workshop sessions form an essential part of the core training.
“As Democracy’s College, MDC is committed to developing a program dedicated to training leaders to uphold and promote the values of freedom and democracy across our world. I am proud to announce the establishment of the Institute for Freedom in the Americas, which will be located inside our beloved Freedom Tower, set to celebrate its centennial and grand re-opening in 2025. At The Institute for Freedom in the Americas, future fellows will learn the principles that shape just societies and carry them forward to make an impact, both at home and abroad, leaving a legacy of freedom for generations to come.”
- President Pumariega
