**About CIVIC**

Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) is a neutral, impartial and independent international humanitarian organization, working to improve protection for civilians caught in conflict zones. CIVIC envisions a world in which no civilian is harmed in armed conflict. Our mission is to support communities affected by conflict in their quest for protection and strengthen the resolve and capacity of armed actors to prevent and respond to civilian harm. We are advocates who believe no civilian caught in conflict should be ignored and we are advisors who provide practical solutions to prevent and respond to civilian harm.
