The Institute for Minority Rights pursues basic and applied research on the protection of minorities and the management of cultural diversity. It focuses on issues of cohesion and governance in pluri-ethnic societies, including the new challenges related to migration into territories inhabited by minorities.

• Minorities, indigenous peoples and territorial governance
• National minorities, migration and cultural diversity
• European institutions and minority protection​

​Besides its expertise in conducting basic and applied research, the institute publishes various high-end academic publications​​, and offers consultancy​ and training on minority rights worldwide. Drawing on the South Tyrolean autonomy model as a contextual framework for the Institute's work, our team of lawyers and political scientists promote peaceful coexistence in pluri-ethnic societies and intercultural understanding between different peoples around the world. The institute focuses on the management of ethnic and cultural diversity as a tool for accomplishing these goals.
