Welcome to t
he RCSS
The Regional Centre for Strategic Studies (RCSS) is a South Asian regional think tank, based in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Established in 1993, it is an independent, non-profit and non-governmental organization which encourages research, dialogue, and deliberation on a broad range of conventional and non-conventional sources of conflict. The RCSS enables scholars and other professionals to address, individually and collectively, problems and issues of topical interest for all South Asian countries.
The Centre’s key objectives are to:
- Sponsor, coordinate, and support research on South Asian strategic, security, and environmental issues.
- Promote interaction among scholars and professionals in the region and beyond who are engaged in South Asian studies.
- Foster linkages and collaboration among institutions focusing on studies and activities related to conflict, conflict transformation, and regional cooperation in South Asia.
- Encourage a new generation of analysts and commentators to generate fresh ideas and perspectives on the security discourse in the region.
