विकासशील देशों के लिए अनुसंधान और सूचना प्रणाली (आरआईएस) एक नई दिल्ली स्थित स्वायत्त नीति अनुसंधान संस्थान है जो अंतर्राष्ट्रीय आर्थिक विकास, व्यापार, निवेश और प्रौद्योगिकी से संबंधित मुद्दों में माहिर है। आरआईएस को वैश्विक और क्षेत्रीय आर्थिक मुद्दों पर विकासशील देशों के बीच प्रभावी नीति वार्ता और क्षमता-निर्माण को बढ़ावा देने के लिए एक मंच के रूप में कल्पना की गई है।

आरआईएस के कार्य कार्यक्रम का ध्यान दक्षिण-दक्षिण सहयोग को बढ़ावा देना है और विभिन्न मंचों में बहुपक्षीय वार्ता में विकासशील देशों के साथ सहयोग करना है। आरआईएस कई क्षेत्रीय आर्थिक सहयोग पहल की अंतर-सरकारी प्रक्रियाओं में लगी हुई है। सोच टैंकों के अपने गहन नेटवर्क के माध्यम से, आरआईएस अंतरराष्ट्रीय आर्थिक मुद्दों और विकास साझेदारी कैनवास पर नीतिगत मजबूती को मजबूत करने की कोशिश करता है।
