South Asia Institute (Germany)

The South Asia Institute (SAI) is an interdisciplinary center of the Ruprecht-Karls University Heidelberg, Germany for research and teaching on South Asia (that is, the research subjects are the countries Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka). It was founded in 1962 and is located on the campus in Neuenheimer Feld. Due to the close linguistic and historical ties with the South Asian subcontinent, adjacent cultural regions such as Afghanistan or Tibet are also included in the South Asia Institute.[1]
