NETWORK
India Academic Freedom Network is a platform for students, faculty and all those interested in strengthening the values of academic freedom in Indian educational institutions.
We believe in the right to access knowledge, to teach and do research, to enjoy freedom of expression, movement and association, within and outside educational spaces. We believe that such rights are best protected under conditions of institutional autonomy.
