February 21 - 23, 2025 | Camden, ME and virtual livestream options

For the past two decades, liberal democracies worldwide have been under intense pressure from the resurgence of populist and nationalist movements within their borders. The result has been a decline in individual freedoms internally and a strain on international relations. 

The 2025 Camden Conference will look at some of the specific drivers that challenge democracies around the world, including immigration, religious nationalism, the role of polarization and disinformation, and the failure of progressive reforms to remedy economic inequality.

The Camden Conference was founded in 1987 as a nonprofit, non-partisan educational organization whose mission is to foster informed discourse on world issues.
