About CDISS

The Centre for Defence and International Studies (CDISS) was established as a non-profit unit serving the University in policy research. CDISS publishes the CDISS Commentaries as an online platform with a dual purpose:

• to provide space for researchers and staff of the University and other academicians to publish the summary of their research and or short commentaries (usually not more than 1200 words).
• to provide readings and references to University staff, readers and members of the public on selected issues in current affairs.

We welcome contribution from scholars, policy planners and those interested in sharing their views on regional and international affairs. Those interested to contribute can write to the editor at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
