The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is a global leader in commemoration. Founded by Royal Charter in 1917, CWGC works on behalf of the Governments of Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom to commemorate the 1.7 million men and women from the Commonwealth who lost their lives in the two World Wars.

We believe that remembering individuals who have died in conflicts is of universal, perpetual relevance, and that reflecting on their deaths is of continuing and paramount importance for us all.

The cemeteries, memorials, graves, landscapes, and records in our care will be found at 23,000 locations and in more than 150 countries and territories. In North America, CWGC cares for more than 18,000 commemorations on graves and memorials of men and women who died in the World Wars.
