Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC)

The Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) is an international organization dedicated to promoting civilian protection.
We partner with armed actors and civilians to prevent, mitigate, and respond to harm.
Established in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, CIVIC continues her legacy of advocating for war victims.
Our work spans conflict zones across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and South Asia.
We develop practical solutions and advocate for policies that strengthen civilian protection.
