# The Innocence Project Receives the 2021 Milton Friedman Prize for Advancing Liberty 

Last week, the Cato Institute gave the [Milton Friedman Prize for Advancing Liberty](https://www.cato.org/events/milton-friedman-prize-2021) to The Innocence Project for its work exonerating the wrongly convicted and recommending policy change supporting a better criminal justice system. Cato’s Clark Neily sat down with Innocence Project cofounders Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld and executive director Christina Swarns at a dinner honoring their achievements advancing human liberty.
