The Taiwan Center for Security Studies (TCSS) is Taiwan’s premier non-profit research organization dedicated to understanding Taiwan’s multifaceted security challenges. 

Our mission is to promote a framework for peace and collaboration through open dialogue and the exchange of perspectives not only within the Indo-Pacific region but around the globe. We aim to provide comprehensive in-depth research within our areas of expertise, such as policy recommendations towards Cross-Strait Relations, as well as non-traditional security challenges that Taiwan currently faces. Many crucial areas within Taiwan’s security interests must be addressed such as civil defense, military intelligence, information communication technology security, as well as energy resilience, semiconductor manufacturing, and maritime governance. TCSS hopes to facilitate insightful events and discussions to inform decision-makers, government officials, academics, and the general public in order to help Taiwan navigate its turbulent and uncertain future.
