The Streit Council promotes transnational institutional frameworks to unite democratic societies as a necessary step toward increased global stability, solidarity, justice and freedom.

"Any qualitative step toward a more just and peaceful world order must be centered on the individual."

Since 1939, the Streit Council has championed the idea that democratic nations can — and must — form deeper institutional bonds to address the challenges no single nation can solve alone. We believe that federal principles, applied internationally, offer the most promising path to a world of freedom, justice, and solidarity.
