Wilton Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wilton Park is a government agency sponsored by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in the United Kingdom[1].

Wilton Park began on 12 January 1946 as part of an initiative inspired by Sir Winston Churchill, who in 1944 called for Britain to help establish a democracy in Germany after the second world war.[2] Since 1951 it has been based at Wiston House in Sussex.

Farhan Nizami is currently chair of Wilton's advisory committee.
