TheArab Liberal Federation (ALF;Arabic:الاتحاد الليبرالي العربي) is a network ofliberalpolitical parties, organizations and activists from Arab countries. It was formed in 2008 inCairo under the name ofNetwork of Arab Liberals (NAL). Wael Nawara of theEgyptianEl-Ghad Party was elected as a first president. The network was renamed TheArab Alliance for Freedom and Democracy in 2011, reacting to the negative connotations that the term 'liberal' has in some Arab countries.[1] In March 2016, the Alliance was renamed to its current name using the term 'Liberal' as ideological identification.
The network is affiliated toLiberal International federation, and receives support from the EuropeanALDE Party and the GermanFriedrich Naumann Foundation and theVVD of Netherlands.
In March 2016, ALF met in theTunisian capital, Tunis, to elect new leaders.
