Academics for Academic Freedom is associated with the libertarian anti-environmental LM network. AFAF was launched in mid 2007. [1] Two of its UK speakers, Stuart Derbyshire and Dennis Hayes have written for other LM network entities.

AFAF campaigns for the "Right to Offend" and opposes the No Platform for Racists and Fascists policy. [2]

Its campaigns are promoted in other LM entities such as the Battle of Ideas and Spiked.

An offshoot is Student Academics for Academic Freedom, also launched in 2007. While it has a Facebook site, its website has closed. [3]
