Living Through Nigeria's Six-Year
“When We Can’t See the Enemy, Civilians Become the Enemy” Living Through Nigeria’s Six-Year Insurgency About the Report This report explores the experiences of civilians and armed actors living through the conflict in northeastern Nigeria. The ultimate goal is to better understand the gaps in protection from all sides, how civilians perceive security actors, and what communities expect from those who are supposed to protect them from harm. With this understanding, we analyze the structural impediments to protecting civilians, and propose practical—and locally informed—solutions to improve civilian protection and response to the harm caused by all armed actors in this conflict. About Center for Civilians in Conflict Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) works to improve protection for civil- ians caught in conflicts around the world. We call on and advise international organizations, governments, militaries, and armed non-state actors to adopt and implement policies to prevent civilian harm. When civilians are harmed we advocate the provision of amends and post-harm assistance. We bring the voices of civilians themselves to those making decisions affecting their lives. The organization was founded as Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a courageous humanitarian killed by a suicide bomber in 2005 while advocating for Iraqi families.

Climate change seems to be having alliance with increasing insecurity in the world. Barely coming out of the global financial, economic, energy and food crisis that swept most part of the world in 2008, Nigeria is yet weighed down again by environmental and social insurgences in the last two years. For instance, largest part of the nation revenue that would have been used to create million jobs is on security and to woo foreign support on security matter in the nation. Because of the sensitivity of the dual facet monster, and the numerous octopus-like hands of its operation, stakeholders seem confused or divided. The seemly division at the head appears priming dis-connection at the various parts of the body. -
