About

Established in 2025, the Institute for Anglo-Turkish Relations (IATR) is a non-partisan initiative dedicated to strengthening ties between Türkiye and the Anglosphere. While our core focus is on the United Kingdom and Türkiye, we recognise the shared heritage of the English-speaking world and the opportunities for their deeper engagement with Türkiye. The IATR provides a lasting institutional bridge between policymakers, academics, and the public, fostering dialogue and collaboration from Ankara and Istanbul to London, Washington, and beyond.

At a time of profound global change, our mission is to create a platform for meaningful exchange on diplomacy, security, trade, energy, and culture. By connecting ideas with action, we seek to build a deeper and more resilient partnership between our family of nations, one that reflects shared interests, global responsibilities, and a commitment to lasting cooperation.
