The Centre For Social Cohesion, London, UK.
Self-description:
"The Centre for Social Cohesion is an non-partisan think-tank that studies issues related to community cohesion in Britain. Headquartered in London, it was founded in 2007 by Civitas to promote new thinking that can help bring Britain's ethnic and religious communities closer together while strengthening British traditions of openness, tolerance and democracy.
The CSC undertakes on-the-ground research into ethnic and religious communities and organisations in the UK and publishes impartial, detailed analyses. Of diverse religious and ethnic backgrounds, the CSC staff bring years of field experience in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and East Asia to this task. They include speakers of Arabic, Bengali, Urdu and other Asian and European languages."
