The Fondation pour une entraide intellectuelle européenne (Foundation for the Support of European Intellectuals, FEIE) was set up in 1966 in Geneva to help morally and financially non-conformist intellectuals in East European communist countries, as well as Spain and Portugal. The idea of its establishment came from members of the Congress for Cultural Freedom, an advocayc group formed in the 1950s to fight the influence of communism.
