The Stimson Center is a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank that analyzes issues related to global peace. It is named after the American lawyer and politician Henry L. Stimson.

In 2013, Stimson received the MacArthur Award for Creative and Effective Institutions.[3] Stimson was ranked 10th best US think tank in the University of Pennsylvania's 2020 Global Go To Think Tanks Report.[4]
