Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship (SAFS)

The Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship (SAFS) is an organization that promotes the principles of academic freedom and open inquiry in educational institutions, particularly in Canada. It advocates for the rights of scholars to express diverse viewpoints and engage in research without fear of censorship or reprisal. SAFS aims to protect academic integrity, encourage free debate, and support the exchange of ideas in higher education. By challenging ideological conformity and fostering a respectful academic environment, SAFS seeks to ensure that universities remain places of learning and exploration for all perspectives.
