It has long been the aspiration of defence institutions to establish a dedicated think tank—a platform capable of providing strategic and military-strategic guidance, as well as policy recommendations in the field of defence and security.

Bangladesh emerged through the War of Liberation, sacrificing millions of lives. The nation therefore understands the profound importance of human rights, social justice, security, and peace. As a small developing country, Bangladesh places significant emphasis on global peace and security, and it is consequently one of the leading troop-contributing nations in UN Peace Support Operations. Participation in global peace efforts remains a cornerstone of our foreign policy.

The Osmani Centre for Peace and Security Studies is honour-bound to provide impartial, independent, and intellectually rigorous inputs in pursuit of national, regional, and global peace and security within its mandate.
