The Centre for Muslim Policy Research is the only independent think tank in Britain that researches the state of the Muslim community in the UK. Our research aims to provide a better understanding of who British Muslims are and the issues most affecting them. By bringing together academic research, policy development and community expertise to engage with policy-makers, we intend to help them develop their own thinking about some of the most important and challenging issues facing Muslim communities today. What do we do - Publish evidence-based research, policy briefings and seminal papers, grounded in academic rigour, to facilitate understanding and dialogue in the public sphere - Engage with policy-makers to enhance their understanding of the most critical issues that affect Britain’s Muslim community - Respond to government consultations, papers and policy proposals - Conduct surveys and opinion polls to monitor and comment on Muslim opinion on pertinent issues and map Muslim policy concerns
