What is CLIPSAS?
CLIPSAS is the world's largest organization of liberal and adogmatic Freemasonry with groups of 71 Obediences in 41 countries in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas around the Call of Strasbourg, hence the meaning of its French acronym (Liaison Centre et d'Information des Puissances maçonniques Signataries de l'Appel de Strasbourg) meaning "Liaison and Information Center of the Masonic Powers signatories of the Strasbourg Appeal."


In its statement of principles CLIPSAS expresses its absolute fidelity to the message of tolerance, brotherhood and unity contained in the Constitutions of Anderson, and that Freemasonry's mission is to gather people without barriers between them and the Mason's duty to be a element of harmony among all human beings.

CLIPSAS also believes that the essence of Freemasonry is its social ideal of brotherhood and duty and not in the rigid observance of any custom, even if it is traditional. CLIPSAS believes in a spirituality that leads humans to seek (a positive) future for humanity and in improving their living conditions. Being progressive, liberal and adogmatic Masonry is consistent in carrying out within the modern scientific society the original principles of Freemasonry which by its natural extension include, complete freedom of spirit, and admit no absolute restriction on freedom of conscience.
