The Royal Institute of International Affairs (also known as Chatham House) is an independent research and membership organisation working to promote the understanding of key international issues. The Institute promotes debate and research through meetings, conferences and publications. The British Institute of International Affairs (1920-1926), emerged out of 1919 Paris Peace Conference, along with its sister organisation, the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations. The Institute was renamed as the Royal Institute of International Affairs in 1926. The Institute developed a programme of meetings, research, study groups, conferences and publications, and has a specialist Library and Information Service. It is a privately-funded membership organisation, frequently known as Chatham House from the name of its building in St James's Square. The 'Chatham House Rule', which is used around the world to allow for free speech and confidentiality at meetings, originated with the Royal Institute. The Institute is funded through grants, donations, membership subscriptions and revenue from the Institute's trading subsidiary, Chatham House Enterprises Ltd. The Institute has a presence in the United States of America, where the Chatham House Foundation works to promote Anglo-American relations. |
