The Centre for Kurdish Progress is a platform for discussing issues affecting Kurdish-speakers in the UK and Kurdish regions in the Middle East. It was founded in 2014 by Ibrahim Dogus,[1][2][3] who has also founded the Centre for Turkey Studies think tank. The Centre for Kurdish Progress holds regular discussion events, some of which are held within the UK Parliament buildings.[4] The centre also organises an annual celebration of the Kurdish New Year, Newroz,[5][6][7] in conjunction with the Most Successful Kurds in Britain Awards ceremony.[8][9][10]
