Ep46: Introducing the Federation of United Naturists and Nudists

Welcome, nudies, to episode 46 of the New Nudist Podcast.

This episode is all about FUNN, the Federation of United Naturists and Nudists, the newly formed nonprofit membership organization that has been recognized by the International Naturist Federation (INF-FNI) as its U.S. representative.

Scott and Evan are joined by James Nunn, FUNN’s treasurer and a longtime naturist and nonprofit leader, to talk about why the organization was created, what it hopes to do, and what it means to put the United States back at the international naturist table after 17 years away.

We also welcome back Stéphane Deschênes, president of the International Naturist Federation, who explains what the INF actually does, why international cooperation matters, why the U.S. has been absent for so long, and what FUNN’s membership in the federation means for American naturists. He also previews some of the work ahead, including the INF World Congress in Hungary and a planned international survey of naturism.

Then Scott, Evan, and James dig further into FUNN itself: why it was designed as an affordable complement to existing U.S. naturist organizations, how its members will have a voice in its governance and international representation, and where the organization may go from here.

FUNN is just getting started, and so is the conversation.
