THE CAMP

A place to think clearly — and think alongside others.

Liberty Camp Moldova 2026 is the first edition of the Liberty Camp program to take place in Moldova.

The program combines classical liberal ideas in philosophy, economics, ethics and entrepreneurship with English conversation, in-person workshops and practical exercises designed to help participants apply ideas to problems they may face at home or during their careers.

Over five days, participants will engage with international instructors through lectures, workshops, debates, simulations, collaborative exercises and participant presentations.

From ideas to capability.

The goal of Liberty Camp is not simply to transfer knowledge. The program seeks to increase participants' capabilities, strengthen their international professional networks and connect them to the Language of Liberty Institute alumni community of more than 4,000 young change-makers.
