Publisher: British Institute for the Study of Iraq (BISI)

The British Institute for the Study of Iraq (Gertrude Bell Memorial) was established as the British School of Archaeology in Iraq on 14 January 1932 to promote, support and undertake research in Iraq and neighbouring countries. At the Annual General Meeting on 12 December
2007 its members approved a change in name to the British Institute for the Study of Iraq to reflect the widening remit of its work.

The Institute’s aim is to advance research and public education relating to Iraq and neighbouring countries in anthropology, archaeology, geography, history, languages and related disciplines within the arts, humanities and social sciences from the earliest times until the present.

British Institute for the Study of Iraq Newsletter publishes reports on research projects and conferences as well as outreach efforts with different communities to promote an interest in Iraq and neighbouring countries via schools, museums, universities and the academic community in the broadest sense.
