The
Centre of Liaison and Information of Masonic Powers Signatories of Strasbourg Appeal (CLIPSAS) is an international organization of
Masonic jurisdictions. These jurisdictions are considered
irregular by the
United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE) and most other Anglo-Saxon Grand Lodges because they accept women, or do not require Masons to have a belief in a
Supreme Being (
Great Architect of the Universe).
History
CLIPSAS was created in
Strasbourg France on
22 January 1961, at the initiative of the
Grand Orient de France and eleven Sovereign Masonic Powers. The
Grand Lodges issued the
Strasbourg appeal, with the goal to establish fraternal relations and the recognition of Absolute Liberty of Conscience.
