Liberal International has become the pre-eminent network for liberal parties and for the strengthening of liberal democracy around the world. There are a number of common principles which unite all liberal parties from Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe; human rights, free and fair elections and multiparty-democracy, social justice, tolerance, social market economy, free trade, environmental sustainability and a strong sense of international solidarity. Naturally there is diversity in the application of these principles.
As of April 2006, the president of Liberal International was the British Liberal Democrat peer Lord Alderdice, former leader of the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland and Deputy President was the Dutch Member of Parliament Hans van Baalen, spokesperson on Foreign Affairs, Europe and Defence for the VVD in the Second Chamber of the Dutch Parliament. Secretary General is Jasper Veen.
