Moving Minutes: Manuel Ayau "Teaching Freedom"

In this 2001 interview from the Liberty Fund's "Intellectual Portrait Series," Manuel Ayau explains why it is important to teach the philosophy of liberty. Ayau was an inspiring leader in Central America who lived through the bloody civil war in Guatemala and devoted his life to preventing similar horrors from ever occurring again. Key to that effort was founding a university premised on the idea of individual liberty.

The world's first university devoted to such principles, the Universidad Francisco Marroquin quickly became Guatemala's premier university and is thriving nearly 40 years later. Upon Manuel Ayau's passing this year, MPI honors him and gives tribute to his ground-breaking work for the cause of freedom.
