International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is a humanitarian organization focused on helping people affected by crises, such as disasters and conflicts. Established in 1863, it is guided by principles like neutrality and impartiality, ensuring aid is provided based on need alone. The Movement comprises national societies around the world, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. It provides emergency assistance, healthcare, and support for displaced individuals, while also promoting humanitarian laws and principles to protect those in armed conflicts.
