Small Island Cultures Research Initiative (SICRI)

About Small Island Cultures Research Initiative (SICRI)

SICRI is an international network of island scholars. Its principal aim is to research and assist the maintenance and development of the language, literature, music, dance, folkloric and media cultures of small island communities. It aims to identify potential research partners and appropriate strategies and funding sources to benefit small island cultures and those researching them. Key to SICRI’s activities is the principle that external researchers should develop their projects in consultation with island communities and should reciprocate such co-operation with appropriate assistance and facilitation of local cultural initiatives. Since its inception in 2004, it has organized sixteen Island Studies International Conferences (ISIC) and has developed partnerships with institutions, research centers and local island organizations that advance its mission. SICRI produces two creative outputs: Island Conversations Podcast Series and Island Notes-Audiovisual Essays. Membership is free.
