The Conservative Leadership Foundation (CLF) is a group founded in 2009 by conservative Liberal Senator Cory Bernardi.[1]

Aims and activities

On its website the CLF states that it "believes that the principles of limited government, personal responsibility, free enterprise and traditional values are vital to our future security, stability and prosperity. Our training and leadership programs aim to increase the number of conservative activists supporting these principles and their effectiveness in engaging with the public policy process."[1]

The group states that it "recruits, educates, trains and supports volunteer activists to fight for our core principles and take leadership roles in business, the media, academia, political and community organisations. Through a range of specialist courses, networking events and grassroots campaigns, the CLF equips conservatives with the skills required to develop and communicate their ideas in an efficient, effective and successful manner. The mission of the CLF is two-fold: to develop leaders and to support action."[1]

International links

On its website the CLF states that it has "connections with several overseas training organisations that share our mission and our goals" and that this "allows us to send promising young conservative activists to our affiliate training schools and leadership courses in the US and the UK."[2]
