Here’s what happened in 2025 in our Asia-Pacific region.
In Cambodia, trained volunteers found creative ways to introduce young students to critical thinking and individual liberty.
In Vietnam, SFL successfully held its first in-person events in February 2025, carefully navigating institutional hostility and censorship while introducing students to entrepreneurship and economic freedom.
In Bali, the Asia-Pacific team launched its first Women For Liberty Retreat, bringing together female leaders from four countries and empowering them to organize 34 events across five nations, reaching 847 students. The initiative expanded online through educational content that reached thousands more.
And in Indonesia, despite growing authoritarianism and real personal risk, SFL leaders hosted large-scale events on freedom, identity, entrepreneurship, and environmental sustainability, engaging hundreds of students in open discussions about the role of markets and individual choice.
Furthermore, in 2025 we conducted the virtual training phase of our Safe Advocacy Training, which has already resulted in 27 events in hostile countries, such as those mentioned above.
