The ISAS was established in 2004 as an autonomous research institute at the National University of Singapore. Its establishment reflects the increasing economic and political importance of South Asia and the strong historical links between South Asia and Southeast Asia.
The Institute is dedicated to research on contemporary South Asia. It seeks to promote understanding of this vital region of the world and to communicate knowledge and insights about it to policy makers, the business community, academia and civil society in Singapore and beyond.
The ISAS Honorary Fellowship was established to ensure that the Institute is well-placed to develop research on and linkages with South Asia and its adjacent regions. The aim of the Fellowship is to create a community of distinguished persons who have previously held research appointments at ISAS or have had/have an affiliation with the Institute. These eminent persons have also held senior appointments in academia, government, civil society, media, and/or in business.
