About Us

The Indian Civilisation Institute of Guyana’s main goal is to educate, share, and preserve the contributions of Indian civilisation, which spans over 4,000 years. This helps ensure that future generations of Indians in Guyana and around the world are fully aware of their ancestors’ contributions and achievements across various fields for humanity.

A Home for Cultural Learning and Inspiration

The Indian Civilisation Institute of Guyana is more than just an educational centre—it is a lively space where culture thrives, stories come to life, and communities come together. Whether you're interested in learning Indian languages, exploring ancient Indian history, understanding Indo-Guyanese traditions, or reconnecting with your roots, the institute welcomes you to a place where heritage and modernity blend.

Our Mission

The mission of the Indian Civilisation Institute of Guyana is to preserve, promote, and advance the rich cultural, spiritual, and historical heritage of Indian civilisation within Guyana and across the global diaspora. We aim to educate communities through research, exhibitions, cultural programs, and academic initiatives that celebrate the values, traditions, and contributions of Indo-Guyanese history. Our purpose is to inspire cultural pride, strengthen identity, and ensure that the timeless wisdom of Indian civilisation—its philosophy, arts, language, and spiritual teachings—continues to guide and enrich future generations.

Our Vision

Our goal is to become Guyana’s leading centre for Indian cultural knowledge, preservation of history, and international cultural exchange. We strive to create a world where Indo-Guyanese heritage is recognised, respected, and celebrated globally. The institute envisions a future in which the teachings of Indian civilisation—focused on harmony, learning, unity, and spiritual growth—help build stronger communities in Guyana and foster stronger connections between nations. By promoting understanding and cultural appreciation, we aim to leave a lasting legacy that links the past, present, and future.
