Rozwój współpracy cywilno-wojskowej w Siłach Zbrojnych Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (część I)

Civil Military Cooperation (CIMIC) is now an integral part of any operation which, both in the Polish Armed Forces and similarly other NATO countries, was structured basing on experiences in the Balkans. Poland in its implementation of CIMIC took advantage largely on what had been developed and created in NATO staffs, adopting the procedures to national capabilities. Until then, its implementation had been uncoordinated and scattered among other executive cells. The origin and development of CIMIC in the Polish Armed Forces is closely connected with the evolution of battlefield conditions as well as new requirements and challenges resulting from international obligations related to Poland’s membership in international organizations such as, among others, NATO, the UN and the EU.
