Astro-Algerian philosophy, Algerian Astronism, also known as Algerian Tanwir as part of the denomination of Tanwir’ism, refers to the presence of Astronism in the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria under management and philosophical jurisdiction of The Institution of the Philosophy of Millettism for the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria, a national subsidiary for the worldwide Astronist Institution. 

​

The Institution of the Philosophy of Millettism for the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria oversees the construction and maintenance of observatories and planetariums throughout its jurisdiction. Algeria is split into forty-eight provinces and holds one Grand Observatory in the capital city of Algiers.

​

Freedom of religion in Algeria for Astronists has been labeled as censorious by the Astronist Institution. This means that Astronism is actively censored by the government.

History of Astronism in Algeria

Astronism is not recognised as a religion by the Algerian government and no protections are afforded to Astronists in the country. As a subsequence, the number of Astronists in Algeria can only be estimated at 1,000.
