The Balochi Academy is an autonomous institution under the government of the Pakistani province of Balochistan, that fosters the Balochi language, literature and culture. It supports literary circles; conducts seminars and conferences; and invites academics from all across Pakistan and abroad as guest speakers. It was officially established in 1961, and is headquartered in Quetta, the capital of Balochistan.[1]

It publishes books, translated works, and original research in Balochi, as well as in Urdu, Pashto, English and Persian.

History

The academy was established in 1958.[1]

Before 1997 the Academy didn’t have a building of its own. In 1997, Chief Minister of Balochistan Akhtar Mengal, who was interested in supporting the language, provided the Academy with land and a grant to construct its own building.[1]

In 1999, the complex was officially opened. It is a three-story building in central Quetta with a library and conference hall.[1]
