The State of Religious Freedom Conference

June 11 - 13, 2025

The Ken Starr Institute for Faith, Law, and Public Service, in partnership with the Nootbaar Institute and the Centre for Law and Religious Freedom at Jagiellonian University, held an inaugural conference on religious liberty. This invite-only event was hosted at the Pepperdine University campus in Switzerland, the Chateau d'Hauteville in Blonday - Saint Legier.

The conference brought together religious liberty scholars, practitioners, and jurists to discuss comparative approaches to advancing religious freedom from a variety of transatlantic perspectives.

We are grateful to our sponsors at Founders' First Freedom for making this event possible.
