The Washington Kurdish Institute is a non-profit organization based in Washington, DC that has been dedicated to promoting the rights and interests of the Kurdish people since 1996. With a focus on the Kurds, an ancient Indo-European ethnic group spread across Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran, the institute aims to raise awareness about their history, culture, and struggle for self-determination. Through research, advocacy, and educational initiatives, the Washington Kurdish Institute strives to support the Kurdish community and foster understanding and respect for their unique identity.
As the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East, the Kurds have a rich tribal history and a deep connection to their mountainous homeland. The institute highlights the Kurds' love for music, poetry, and dance, as well as their agricultural traditions and the natural beauty of Kurdistan's landscapes. By shedding light on the challenges faced by the Kurdish people and their ongoing fight for recognition and autonomy, the Washington Kurdish Institute plays a crucial role in amplifying their voices and promoting dialogue and understanding among nations.
