Iberian Liberal Meeting – June 2010
Salamanca, Spain
26 and 27, June, 2010
Purpose of the Meeting: Liberalism in Iberian Peninsula is spread through many organizations, some successful and with dimension, but others still in its early stages of development. There is also a lack of understanding through the peninsula, by the society in general, on the liberal ideology. The objective of the meeting is to discuss the possibility and interest, of joint activities in 2011 to promote and develop the Iberian Liberalism. From a periodic congress (ex: bi-annual), to seminars, workshops or discussing common policies and positions, Iberian Liberalism could benefit in having activities that would strengthen small organizations and promote the exchange of ideas.
