By partnering with Freedom House, companies can gain valuable insights into the operating and policy environments that impact their business, and demonstrate their commitment to spreading peace and economic prosperity through policies, practices, and actions that respect human rights, defend freedom and privacy, and strengthen the rule of law. Freedom House offers several avenues through which businesses can engage with the organization ranging from specialized briefings, research on topics of mutual interest, and event sponsorships. 

Specialized briefings

Freedom House welcomes the opportunity to work with companies on topics of mutual interest. Whether you are considering conducting business in a new area of the world or seeking additional information about a region you already operate in, Freedom House experts can partner with you to ensure your business decisions support democracy and human rights. 

Research

Supporting Freedom House’s research ensures we can continue providing companies with critical information on the ever-evolving changes and threats to digital rights, political rights, and civil liberties all over the globe. Our publications provide detailed country-by-country insights on the functioning of government, the rule of law, electoral processes, and topics like internet freedoms and the media environment, and serve as an independent source of information to businesses assessing material ESG risks. Financial support of these helps ensure Freedom House can continue to produce its publications including: 

• Freedom in the World – the definitive measure of political rights and civil liberties in 210 countries and territories, with data stretching back more than 50 years. 
• Freedom on the Net – the premier measure of fundamental rights and freedoms online. 
• Freedom and the Media – an assessment of ways in which media supports democracy and how media can be manipulated in order to undermine democratic values. 
• Nations in Transit – the leading study of reforms in the former Communist states of Europe and Eurasia. 
• Special reports on the ever-evolving threats to democracy like such as tactics governments are using to silence dissidents beyond their borders, China’s growing media influence around the world, the impact of COVID-19 on the global struggle for freedom, and threats posed by emerging technology.
