The Civil Initiatives Committee (CIC of KGI; Russian: Комитет гражданских инициатив; КГИ; Komitet grazhdanskikh initsiativ, KGI) is a liberal community of politicians, experts and public figures, positioning itself as a non-partisan association of professionals in key spheres of life (in economy, science, education, healthcare, culture) "around the idea of modernizing the country and strengthening democratic institutions".[1] Created on April 5, 2012 by Alexei Kudrin and a number of other politicians and public figures "in order to determine and implement the best option for the country's development".[2]
The name was co-authored with Andrey Nechaev. The creation of a Liberal Democratic Party under this name was postponed because "He (Kudrin) talked to Vladimir Vladimirovich (Putin) and decided that it was too early (to create) the party, we should limit ourselves to creating a committee.".[3] Later, under the chairmanship of Nechaev, the "Civic Initiative" appeared, of which Kudrin did not become a member.
The preconditions for the creation of the Committee were the December events - the 2011 elections and the subsequent rallies on Bolotnaya Square on December 10 and on Academician Sakharov Avenue in Moscow on December 24, 2011. «The past elections demonstrated the desire of citizens to really influence the state of affairs in our country, choose the course of its development» — said in a statement on the creation of the Committee for Civil Initiatives, published on the official website of Alexei Kudrin.[4]
