The IRF Secretariat builds civil society infrastructure to support the religious freedom movement globally. We convene the International Religious Freedom (IRF) Roundtable in Washington DC and in almost 40 other countries. We also are hosting a global series of summits and launching regional IRF Secretariats around the world to help coordinate actions and support our local partners. We encourage economic empowerment of persecuted and marginalized communities. Our work in cooperative engagement with government helps to build religious freedom with responsibility. This creates the social cohesion needed for flourishing societies with peace and stability.
