IFLRY is an international organization that unites liberal youth structures from around the world. Its goal is to serve as the basis for cooperation of youth, whether incorporated or not in NGOs, political parties or student companies. According to our program documents our policy is based on the universality of human rights and their inviolability.
IFLRY is declared a free and tolerant society, without discrimination, giving equal chances and taking into account individual and minority rights in the world. According to IFLRY such objectives can be achieved only in a democratic system of government.
As a liberal youth organization IFLRY supports market economy, which is limited only by the equitable distribution of wealth and ecological sustainability. Our experience shows that this can be obtained through equal opportunities for division of wealth both within countries and in international trade.
