The Malabar International Spice Route Heritage Society (MISR), an initiative driven by a passionate group of heritage advocates, is making waves in Malabar with its mission to preserve the region's rich historical legacy for future generations. The organisation aims to promote academic research, support scholarly initiatives, and foster public discussions centred on Malabar's vibrant culture.

Located at the heart of Kannur city, MISR headquarters operates from a century-old pandikasala, a British-era warehouse—a nod to the layered history of the region. The society hopes to transform this heritage venue into a dynamic hub for cultural and academic activities.
