Civilian Protection
Civilian protection refers to the measures taken to safeguard non-combatants during armed conflicts and emergencies. This includes ensuring their safety from violence, providing humanitarian assistance, and respecting their rights under international law. Organizations like the United Nations and various non-governmental organizations work to promote and implement these protections.
In many conflicts, civilians are at risk of being harmed or displaced. Efforts to protect them involve monitoring situations, advocating for their rights, and providing essential services such as food, shelter, and medical care. The goal is to minimize suffering and uphold the dignity of those affected by violence.
