The Centre for Cross Border Studies (CCBS) is a think tank based in Ireland.

The Centre for Cross Border Studies was founded in 1999 with the purpose of undertaking policy research in the field of cross-border cooperation within Ireland and further afield.

The scope of the centre's research encompasses all areas in which practical cross border cooperation between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland may take place;[1][2] this includes healthcare, education, training, health, ICT, the economy, public administration, planning, the environment, citizens information, impact assessment and other areas.

In addition, it provides administrative support to its sister organisation The International Centre for Local and Regional Development (ICLRD).

[6] The centre cooperates extensively with the North/South Ministerial Council and other all-island bodies created under the Good Friday Agreement.
