Want to Change the World? Start with Your Campus.

Everything you need to lead on campus—and beyond.

F.A. Hayek, one of the greatest defenders of liberty, had a powerful insight:

❝ Ideas shape the world—from the classroom to the halls of power. ❞

That means the battle for freedom doesn’t start in Congress. It starts in the classroom. And right now, too many universities are echo chambers for bad ideas: statism, censorship, collectivism.
Our 90-day framework is designed to flip that script.

You’ll learn how to build a pro-liberty group, host bold events, and challenge the status quo with confidence and purpose.

You won’t be alone—we’ll train, mentor, and back you every step of the way. Because when you win hearts and minds on campus, the ripple effects reach everywhere.

And your campus could be next.

Who We Are

Students For Liberty started in 2008 with a small student gathering at Columbia University. The goal? Help pro-liberty students connect, collaborate, and grow.

The first event was planned for 30 students. Despite a blizzard, 100 showed up. That was the spark.

Today, we’re the largest international pro-liberty student organization in the world, providing young leaders with the training, community, and resources they need to stand up for liberty—and build freer societies.

We embrace diverse justifications for liberty, from classical liberalism to libertarianism, and we welcome civil debate and intellectual curiosity.

Our mission is to equip the next generation of thinkers, doers, and changemakers with the tools to advance freedom—on campus and beyond.

Hear It From Our Alumni

❝ Being a coordinator for Students For Liberty is about more than advocating for freedom; it’s about building a network of dedicated freedom leaders. The most rewarding part is seeing friends actively working toward, and sometimes achieving, greater freedom in their countries—a constant source of motivation. The shared experiences and knowledge we exchange are invaluable and make this journey deeply fulfilling.❞
Pedro KreutzNorth America
❝ Joining SFL 2 years ago, I could never imagine what a change and impact it could bring to my life. Apart from the obvious perk of being surrounded by intelligent, purposeful and talented people, this year SFL got additional meaning for me. With the breakout of war in Ukraine and the global support in gains from the community, I have no doubt: students and non-students in this community ARE truly for liberty.❞
Tetiana RakUkraine
❝ SFL exposed me to global opportunities and experiences that were pivotal for my career growth. SFL’s international network was particularly valuable for someone like me, coming from Georgia, where such global connections are rare. Through SFL, I received a newsletter from the Cato Institute, which led to an internship that became a cornerstone of my professional journey.❞
Iva NachkebiaGeorgia
❝ What I found at that first event was so different from what I had expected: There was this atmosphere of genuine, intellectual curiosity and principled discussion. The people there — and they were far more diverse than I had expected, by the way — were, above all, there to learn and grow, not to preach.❞
Cameron WestbrookNorth America
❝ Joining Students For Liberty gave me the information, network, and resources to promote individual rights, limited government, and free markets on and off campus. Without SFL, I wouldn’t be where I am today, advancing liberty with a large Think Tank in the nation’s capital.❞
Jack NicastroDC
❝ I enjoy volunteering at Students For Liberty because it organically brings together people of different backgrounds, ages, and life experiences to bond over the shared love of liberty. How different (and better) society would be if people united more frequently around things they enjoy rather than dislike.❞
Ryan BercawNorth America
❝ Ideas alone don’t change the world. Action does. SFL helped me take my beliefs beyond philosophy and turn them into tangible change.❞
Jeremy ThompsonNorth America
❝ I don’t think I would be the same person without the experiences I’ve had from SFL and the Local Coordinator program. I have met people from Canada, Europe, South America, Asia, and Africa, all of whom were open to discussing almost anything. I know of no other student organization with a community like Students For Liberty.❞
Garreth ConnerCanada
❝ Becoming a local coordinator with SFL has improved my leadership skills and dedication towards creating a better society, with respect to human rights, understanding of ideas of free markets, and prosperity. SFL is an opportunity which has opened up my mind to the world and gives me an idea of how to build a better and freer Africa.❞
Ndaula VianUganda
❝ (...) you learn very quickly with Students For Liberty: People in this world are passionate about their ideas and want to share them. Young people can change the world! Thanks to SFL and this mindset I was able to invite President Milei to an event here in Milan.
Manuel Ferretti MartinezItaly
❝ It’s a great network that you can rely on, and you rarely get a network of people who are not only intellectually great, but are also great to talk to. They’re friends for life.❞
Amjad AunSyria
