Academic Freedom’s Crucial Role in Society

The European Parliament’s Forum for Academic Freedom has launched a video series featuring interviews on the protection of intellectual freedom. In the first three interviews, experts share their insights on the importance of safeguarding this essential principle.

Whether they have personally faced limitations on their research or are actively working to uphold scholarly independence, they explain why this right is vital for society. The video was presented at the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA) conference on freedom in education and research, held on 29 November.
