Global Red Cross Movement

The Global Red Cross Movement is an international network dedicated to alleviating human suffering, especially during emergencies and disasters. It comprises the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), which coordinates activities across countries; individual National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, which provide localized aid; and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), focused on conflict zones. Together, they promote humanitarian principles, disaster response, health services, and disaster preparedness, operating independently yet united by a commitment to serve vulnerable populations worldwide.
