Civil Innovation Lab (CIV) is a multidisciplinary group of international social innovators and entrepreneurs responsible for a series of initiatives dedicated to transform inefficiencies, bridge gaps, address value creation and connect stakeholders. Our fields of work range from local communities to education and cultural projects, and include information society, disaster relief and social entrepreneurship.

The origins of CIV go back to 1996 with CIVILA, an early social network of Latin American Virtual Cities which grew and evolved into the current lab's many projects, including Relief 2.0, Socinfo, Educar, BibliotecasVirtuales and other initiatives engaging 5 million people around the globe every month.

A Collaborative and Agile Framework

We work as a collaborative framework for innovation through civic and civil society engagement in the fields of education, human development, disaster relief and recovery, open access to culture and social entrepreneurship in Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and USA.

In an agile, transparent, participative and collaborative manner, CIV uses technologies, open models and social tools for the development of profitable and sustainable enterprises.

CIV works through partnerships with private sector, academia, civil society, community organisations, outstanding leaders and innovators.
