Bosnian Institute

The Bosnian Institute is an organisation principally devoted to providing information on, and promoting the common good of, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It publishes a quarterly online magazine. It is directed by Quintin Hoare.

The Bosnian Institute was founded in July 1997 as a UK Registered Charity, with a grant from the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. In addition to other donors, the charity continues to be funded by this foundation as well as the Friends of the Bosnian Institute.

The Board of Trustees is chaired by the prominent historian Noel Malcolm, with other Balkan specialists such as Dr Bojan Bujic, Cambridge historian Dr Brendan Simms and journalist Melanie McDonagh.
