International Association for Religious Freedom

The International Association for Religious Freedom (IARF) is a charitable organization with the declared vision of "advancing free and liberal religion, promoting religious freedom and human rights, and protecting religious minorities worldwide." It is the oldest international group promoting dialogue between religions. The IARF was founded in Boston, Massachusetts by the American Unitarian Association in 1900 as the International Council of Unitarian and other Liberal Religious Thinkers and Workers, with a charter “to open communication with those in all lands who are striving to unite Pure Religion and Perfect Liberty.” In 1907, Protestants, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and Roman Catholics participated in the opening ceremony of its congress.
