In order to promote the interests of UK research and learning around the world, the Academy works to create frameworks to support international networking and collaboration and develop the role of humanities and social sciences research in tackling global challenges.  It draws on expertise from a wide range of sources from within the fellowship and on specialist advice from its seven Area Panels for Africa, China, the Middle East, Europe, South Asia, and Latin America/Caribbean.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/international|title=The British Academy International Work}}</ref>

The Academy also funds and coordinates a network of overseas institutes which provide local expertise, logistical support and often a working base for UK scholars. These include research institutes in [[British Institute in Amman|Amman]], [[British Institute at Ankara|Ankara]], [[British School at Athens|Athens]], [[Kenyon Institute|Jerusalem]], [[British Institute in Eastern Africa|Nairobi]], [[British School at Rome|Rome]] and Tehran, as well as UK-based specialist learned societies which run strategic research programmes in other parts of the world including Africa, Latin America and South and South East Asia.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/international/research-institutes|title=British International Research Institutes}}</ref>
