Civil-Military Cooperation Patch
DESCRIPTION

Civil-Military Cooperation Patch 7x8cmPVC insignia of the Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Produced in standard 8 cm size, this patch is worn by officers who serve as a critical link between military commands and civilian populations, administrations, and NGOs in areas affected by conflict.

CIMIC units facilitate evacuations, humanitarian aid delivery, infrastructure recovery, and civil administration support in frontline and liberated territories. Their work is especially vital in the context of full-scale warfare, where military presence directly intersects with civilian life.

Historical Background – Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) Ukraine:

The Civil-Military Cooperation Directorate was created as part of Ukraine’s Armed Forces reform to manage the growing complexity of military-civilian interactions, especially after the beginning of the Russian aggression in 2014. CIMIC officers are trained in negotiation, disaster response, humanitarian coordination, and international law.

Since 2022, their importance has grown dramatically. CIMIC units operate in de-occupied regions, support IDPs (internally displaced persons), liaise with local administrations, and coordinate with international humanitarian organizations.

These personnel play a vital role in maintaining stability in conflict zones, winning civilian trust, and ensuring the military’s operations do not harm civilian life — a key element in Ukraine’s strategy for sustainable defense and post-conflict recovery.
