The Discovery Institute

The Discovery Institute is a think tank based in the United States that promotes ideas related to intelligent design and challenges certain aspects of evolutionary theory. Established in 1990, it advocates for scientific research and education that consider intelligent design as an alternative explanation for the origins of life. The institute also explores topics like policy, ethics, and the role of science in society. While it seeks to influence educational and scientific discussions, its views are often subject to debate within the broader scientific community.
