The 25th anniversary of the landmark International Religious Freedom Act (IRFA) presents an opportunity to reflect on the United States’ strong bipartisan consensus around the centrality of religious freedom to ensuring peace and stability around the world. On October 31, USIP hosted a discussion on how the IRFA helped create a U.S. mandate for promoting international religious freedom, the successes and lessons of its implementation across multiple administrations, and the mission’s ongoing relevance to global peace and security.
