BABSI - The British Academy Black Sea Initiative

The British Academy Black Sea Initiative [BABSI] began as a three-year programme of research in the Black Sea region sponsored by the British Academy and coordinated by the British Institute at Ankara (BIAA). The aim of the initiative was to lay the groundwork for much longer-term developmet of study in the region. Established in the spring of 2002, this first stage of BABSI came to a conclusion at the end of March 2005. However, the British Institute at Ankara has continued to support elements of the Initiative.
A Web-Based bibliography of academic work about the Black Sea littoral has been prepared by scholars from Turkey, Romania, and the United Kingdom over the course of several years.
