The Stockholm Center for Freedom (SCF) is an advocacy organization founded in 2017 by Turkish journalists allegedly linked to the Gülen movement.[1][2] SCF is managed by Abdullah Bozkurt and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.[3][2] The group moved to Sweden after the government crackdown on press freedom in Turkey after the deadly 2016 failed coup d'état attempt, which the government blamed on Gülenists.[4][5] The group is mainly focused on issues related to human rights and press freedom in Turkey, although it occasionally reports on other countries as well. It has issued a number of reports in English and Turkish on the human rights situation in Turkey.[6]
