The institute is located in the Moroccan capital of Rabat. It was officially founded on October 17, 2001, under a royal decree of King Mohammed VI, and was run by Amazigh scholars and activists. The institute had legal and financial independence from the executive branch of government, but its recommendations about the education of the Berber languages in Moroccan public schools are not legally binding to the government.

On Transparency International's 2024 Corruption Perceptions Index, Morocco scored 37 on a scale from 0 ("highly corrupt") to 100 ("very clean"). When ranked by score, Morocco ranked 99th among the 180 countries in the Index, where the country ranked first is perceived to have the most honest public sector. For comparison with regional scores, the average score among Middle Eastern and North African countries was 39. The best score among Middle Eastern and North African countries was 68 and the worst score was 12. For comparison with worldwide scores, the average score was 43, the best score was 90 (ranked 1), and the worst score was 8 (ranked 180).
