The John XXIII Foundation for Religious Studies () is a research institution in Bologna, Italy and is directed by Alberto Melloni. The organization publishes, organizes, receives and communicates research within religious studies with a particular view to Christianity.

The foundation began with Giuseppe Dossetti in 1953 and was originally called the Institute for Religious Studies in Bologna; In 1985 the Institute was renamed to John XXIII Foundation for Religious Studies. In addition to the many projects that the foundation supports it also maintains numerous archives and collections.

The project is based at the La Pira library in Palermo and serves as the hub for the Foundations history and doctrines of Islam.
