RBG-Azimuth (GDC-Azimuth) is a quarterly Russophone Ukrainian science fiction magazine, published since 2006.[1] Its stories are written in the Russian language by authors living around the world. This includes authors from Ukraine,[2] Russia,[3] Belarus, Lithuania,[4] the United States,[5] and others. The magazine name is an abbreviation that means “guidelines for damage control” in Russian “Руководство по Борьбе за Живучесть" (РБЖ).

RBG-Azimuth exclusively publishes one type of material - short stories. Each issue contains 10-13 stories. It claims to revive traditions of the classic science fiction of the 1970-1980s (like Isaac Asimov, Clifford Simak, Robert Sheckley, Boris and Arkady Strugatsky). Its aim is to publish stories that help people live a better life. Since 2010 RBG-Azimuth and Hanna Concern Publishing issued books with set of the best sci-fi stories of the year.[6][7]

The magazine was nominated on Eurocon from Ukraine as the Best Magazine in 2010[8] and 2011[9] years. One of the authors is Nika Rakitina,[10][who?] who had received the ESFS encouragement award (Belarus) in Eurocon-2008.[11][12][clarification needed]
