This years Freedom Week was a great success, enabling a group of around 30 promising students to meet lecturers and representatives of think tanks, have in depth discussions, and form an informal network which will be invaluable in the future advancement of the principles of freedom. The feedback suggests that Freedom Week may have constituted a life changing experience for a number of students. Some have already started writing articles based on what they learnt, and setting up pro-freedom student societies. Others have asked for help in how to promote free-market ideas in their future careers.
Depending upon whether Freedom Alliance can raise sufficient funds, the next Freedom Week will be 13 - 17 July 2009. A provisional booking has been made to use Sidney Sussex College. Stalwart Freedom Week lecturers Dr. Mark Pennington, Dr. Steve Davies, and Dr. Craig Smith have agreed to attend again.
