Institute of Welsh Affairs

Welcome to the IWA Website

The Institute of Welsh Affairs is an independent think-tank that promotes quality research and informed debate aimed at making Wales a better nation in which to work and live. We commission research, publish reports and policy papers, and organise events across Wales.

We are a membership-based body and a wide range of individuals, businesses and other organisations directly support our activities. Our work embraces a range of topics but especially focuses on politics and the development of the National Assembly for Wales, economic development, education and culture, the environment and health.

If you would like to be kept up-to-date with IWA events and publications through our newsletter please email us.
