The Institute for Cultural Research (ICR) was a London-based, UK-registered educational charity,[1][2][3] events organizer and publisher which aimed to stimulate study, debate, education and research into all aspects of human thought, behaviour and culture.[4] It brought together many distinguished speakers, writers and Fellows over the years.
A statement issued in 2013 by the institute on its official web site read: "As of summer 2013, the Institute has suspended its activities following the formation of a new charity, The Idries Shah Foundation."[4]
