Centre de Recherche Berbère (CRB, English: Berber Research Center) is a department at the Institut national des langues et civilisations orientales (INALCO) specializing in the Berber languages. [1] The center is the oldest organization which focuses on Berber culture and language, being one of the very few[ quantify] to do so. [1] It cooperates with the Institut royal de la culture amazighe du Maroc and programs at Moroccan universities. [1]

The center was founded in 1990 by the Algerian Berber linguist Salem Chaker [2] [3] and managed by him until the end of 2009. [4] Since January 2010, it is headed by Abdellah Bounfour. [5] [6] The center has proposed a standard for the Berber Latin alphabet.[ citation needed]
