International Institute for Research and Education 4.55

Since 1982, when the initial building opened, its main activity has been the organisation of courses, seminars and study groups dealing with all subjects related to the emancipation of the world’s oppressed and exploited. The courses give activists time to study, reflect upon their involvement in a changing world and exchange ideas with people from other countries.

The IIRE shares the belief of grassroots activists that societies can and must be changed democratically from below. This change must be made primarily by those who suffer from exploitation, oppression and injustice.

In addition to the Institute’s own activities, the IIRE supports broader global and local projects to promote emancipation and social justice.

Our website is constantly being expanded and updated with freely downloadable publications, in several languages, and audio files. Recordings of lectures given at the institute can be downloaded from www.iire.org.
