The Organization of Islamic Cooperation is a vocal inter-governmental organization of Muslim member states.It sets its own policy agenda and it established an Islamophobia Observatory in 2007 in its Directorate of Cultural, Social, and Family Affairs.The observatory works in the constituency of Cultural Affairs Department.It monitors and publishes the magnitude and state of Islamophobia observed across the world.Since 2007, it has published several observatory reports, monthly bulletins, and research articles in OIC journals on key incidents of discrimination, hate crimes, and stigmatization of Muslims as intolerant, radicals, violent, and terrorists across the world, particularly in the three continents of Europe, North America, and Australia.This research paper is based on the content analysis of the annual reports of Islamophobia Observatory, which has been exercised independently to observe the role of OIC to address Islamophobia as a legitimate response of the Muslim world.This study highlights the fact that Islamophobia Observatory has presented its every observatory report to the Islamic Conference of Foreign Ministers (ICFM) of OIC member states, which has responded to the issue at various levels.OIC is also addressing this issue at global level.Therefore, OIC has been successful in making Islamophobia a part of international discourse of human rights.Now, it is known as a social evil and its stakeholders have started mitigating it through proper institutional coordination at all levels
