Ibadan Cultural Studies Group (ICSG) has its institutional base in the nation’s premier Faculty of Arts, university of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. It is a non-governmental, non-profit making research-based studies association established in May, 1999.

The Studies Group which is made up of scholars drawn from different universities, especially, in Nigeria, and around the globe, and with bias in cultural studies, is motivated by purposes which include the promotion of folklore scholarship and academic excellence, and making cultural scholarship breakthrough its seemingly rigid boundary in order to encourage and embrace a more lively and relevant inter-disciplinary discourse.

The Studies Group aims, among others, to promote the extension of the frontiers of cultural scholarship, formulation of explanatory models, searching for a more adequate theory or set of theories for the purpose of application and facilitation through organized seminars, symposia, colloquiums, workshops, local and international conferences, and through publications which include, ISES: Journal of Folklore; ISESE Monograph Series; ISESE Study Series (classroom textbooks), and encouragement of budding creative writers.
