Help us continue to document this war’s human losses.
Help us continue to make the data freely available to all.
And help us continue to humanise the Iraqi victims behind the numbers.
Five years after the invasion Iraq Body Count (IBC) not only continues to keep a
firm day-by-day count, it also maintains the largest public list of
named and identified Iraqi dead.
IBC’s work remains a key and unique resource for institutions, researchers, media,
and individual citizens.
But IBC is still run by volunteers on a shoestring. Billions are being spent on this
war, but almost nothing on recording its Iraqi victims.
If you think we are doing an important job, please don’t leave the website without
making a donation.
Your contribution will ensure that the Iraq war’s civilian victims continue to be
visibly and verifiably documented.
Unless you need to contact an individual member of the IBC team, please
write to one of the email addresses in the specified topic contacts.
If you're unsure which address your email should be sent to, just choose
whichever seems the most appropriate (but please do not send email
to multiple IBC addresses).
