Comitas Institute for Anthropological Study Inc

Based at Teachers College, Columbia University in New York, where Lambros Comitas taught for over 50 years, The Comitas Institute has a collaborative mission: (1) to train and prepare researchers in the use of ethnographic field methods, (2) to recognize and support research and applied projects that advance the Institutes vision, and (3) to curate and offer access to the rich body of ethnographic research created by its founder, his colleagues and students. All these objectives endeavor collectively to advance and expand the public face of anthropology.
