The Royal Institute for Governance and Strategic Studies (RIGSS) is an autonomous, not-for-profit leadership institute and a think tank in the kingdom of Bhutan.

Besides leadership and related skills, most RIGSS courses also provide comprehensive and analytical understanding of pertinent national issues and emerging trends and challenges. Research works at the institute focuses on five broad areas of data analysis, foreign policy, national security, finance and emerging technologies. The institute also organizes Track-2 dialogues, eminent speaker series, policy seminars and debates. In the near future, RIGSS will have a second campus at the Royal Academy premises in Paro where long-term courses such as Diplomas and Master's programs will be offered.
