The Royal Anthropological Institute is an independent charity dedicated to the furtherance and understanding of anthropology. As an entirely independent charity, the RAI receives no public funding and is grateful to our generous donors who have supported us over the years in our work.
With your support we can continue to deliver our inspirational online events programme and run our flagship events (London Anthropology Day, the RAI Film Festival and our international conferences). We can continue our essential support of anthropological research, to care for our archive, manuscript and photo collections and develop our education programmes to create globally informed citizens.
