The International Network of Genocide Scholars (INoGS) is a non-profit and non-partisan organization dedicated to fostering scholarly multi-disciplinary exchange and academic debate in the field of genocide studies.

The INoGS was founded on 14 January 2005 in Berlin. INoGS is open to researchers, teachers and students from all academic disciplines working on genocide and mass violence, and has worked closely with academic institutions such as the Centre for the Study of Genocide and Mass Violence.[1]
