The Youth Organisation Freedom and Democracy ( Dutch: Jongerenorganisatie Vrijheid en Democratie, JOVD) is a Dutch political youth organisation. The JOVD cooperates with the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), but is politically independent.

Having trained several well-known members of the House of Representatives and ministers (including Prime Minister Mark Rutte), the JOVD is a highly regarded political school. The JOVD is a member of the European Liberal Youth (LYMEC) and the International Federation of Liberal Youth (IFLRY).
