Redefine
what’s possible
Too often, the people closest to the challenges are left out of the solutions. We’re changing that.
We break barriers to bring civil society and social innovators into global development efforts and propel progress.
About CIVIC
We scale people-driven innovation for global impact.
CIVIC is a community of problem-solvers—from civil society leaders to social innovators, businesses, multilaterals, and governments—working together to redefine global development.
We connect local changemakers with the right financing, networks, and insights to help their solutions grow. By breaking silos and bridging ecosystems, we transform how development happens, making it more collaborative, effective, and people-centered.

March 11, 2025
We are facing interconnected global crises, climate change, pandemics, and widening inequality that threaten to reverse hard won development gains of the past decades. Development is most effective when citizens and civil society are meaningfully engaged in solutions that are not just reactive, but proactive.
