The purpose behind the India & South Asia Analysts Network
Learn More About Our Network
We hold closed-doors events that bring academics and policymakers together to learn from each other’s perspectives on policy challenges in India and South Asia. This website serves as a directory for officials, journalists and other analysts to identify and contact relevant experts. We are the first policy-focused network for South Asia academics in the UK.
Our central purpose is to expand and diversify the 'trusted circle' of South Asia experts whom the UK Government, think-tank sector and media knows and relies upon.
The network co-leads, Dr Dan Haines (University College London) and Dr Kate Sullivan de Estrada (University of Oxford) have recent experience as analysts with the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. Several other members have worked in or with government departments, international organisations and leading policy institutes.
