From civilian protection to civilian rights

Ceasefire empowers civilians to claim their rights, even in the midst of war.

Civilians are often recognized as the principal victims of armed conflict but rarely as the holders of rights. Insecurity makes it difficult to document violations on the ground and justice is silenced.

We promote access to justice for civilians under both human rights law and the laws of armed conflict, holding perpetrators accountable and ensuring that civilian rights can no longer be denied.
