Forward
The Center for Internation-al Strategic Studies (CISS) is Pakistan’s premier think tank based in the scenic and serene city of Islama-bad. Through an excellent team of experts and research professionals, we are dedicated to highlighting the evolving regional and global strategic issues and providing evidence-based analyses and policy recommendations to promote regional stability.
Since its establishment in 2009, CISS has been at the forefront of thought leadership, conducting in-depth research on issues including security, nuclear non-proliferation, arms control, geo-politics, and regional and global strategic stability.
The ‘CISS Insight: Journal of Strategic Studies,’ is our high-impact biannual research product. The editorial and advisory board as well as the entire panel of the Journal’s reviewers and contributors consist of an impressive array of experts on international relations and strategic studies both within Pakistan and abroad.
Our strategic communication reaches out to the knowledge community and our clientele through a range of useful activities including conferences, workshops, seminars, and roundtables, as well as research work published in notable national and international publications.
One of our principal activities consists of inviting opinion-makers as guest speakers to share their leadership experience and intellectual prowess.
All of these pursuits enable us to generate informed debates, provide a new knowledge-based outlook, foster public awareness, forecast the emerging challenges, and spell out better ways of building positive and rational perceptions.
Within a short span of around a decade since its formation, CISS has proven itself to be the voice of Pakistan’s strategic community and is moving from strength to strength on this path.
