The Human Rights Foundation (HRF) is excited to announce the Oslo Freedom Forum in New York (OFF in NY), a half-day event at Town Hall featuring theater talks and performances by the world’s top freedom fighters and dissidents, followed by a special Speaker Gala.

Join us to hear first-hand stories from intrepid human rights defenders, and meet a community of activists, philanthropists, technologists, investors, artists, journalists, and policymakers aiming to make the world a more free, open, and peaceful place.

The Speaker Gala will take place in the evening at the Peak at Hudson Yards, following the theater program. The Gala will be a unique opportunity to spend time with OFF speakers while enjoying additional talks, performances, and fine dining. The suggested dress code is formal/cocktail wear.
