The British Academy, established by Royal Charter in 1902, is the national academy for the humanities and the social sciences. It is an independent, self-governing fellowship of c. 750 scholars, elected for distinction and achievement in one or more branches of the academic disciplines that make up the humanities and social sciences.

The Academy's objectives are:

to represent the interests of scholarship nationally and internationally;
to give recognition to excellence;
to promote and support advanced research;
to further international collaboration and exchange;
to promote public understanding of research and scholarship; and
to publish the results of research.
With the help of a Government grant-in-aid the Academy also acts as a grant-giving body, sponsoring its own research projects and facilitating the work of others, principally by offering research appointments and personal research grants
