World Congress of Families adalah sebuah koalisi Amerika Serikat yang mempromosikan nilai-nilai Kristen sayap kanan di mancanegara.[2] Organisasi tersebut menentang pernikahan sesama jenis, pornografi, dan aborsi, sesambil mendukung sebuah masyarakat yang menghimpun "penyatuan sukarela seorang pria dan wanita dalam wadah perkawinan seumur hidup".[3][4][5][6]
Feminist law professors Doris Buss and Didi Herman wrote, "In terms of international activism, it is through deployment of 'natural family' discourse that the [Christian Right] has had the most success in forging global alliances with other religious movements."
The chief organizer is a Rockford, Illinois-based conservative think tank, the Howard Center. Co-sponsors include more than 20 other U.S. groups allied in opposition to abortion, gay marriage and other policies they blame for weakening traditional families in Western Europe.
