We operate worldwide, helping people affected by conflict and armed violence and promoting the laws that protect victims of war. 

The work of the ICRC is based on the Geneva Conventions of 1949, their Additional Protocols, its Statutes – and those of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement – and the resolutions of the International Conferences of the Red Cross and Red Crescent. The ICRC is an independent, neutral organization ensuring humanitarian protection and assistance for victims of armed conflict and other situations of violence. It takes action in response to emergencies and endeavors to prevent suffering by promoting and strengthening humanitarian law and universal humanitarian principles.

Established in 1863, the ICRC is at the origin of the Geneva Conventions and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. It directs and coordinates the international activities conducted by the Movement in armed conflicts and other situations of violence.

the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is a neutral, impartial, independent humanitarian organization, helping people affected by conflict and armed violence and promoting the laws that protect victims of war.  Please see our website www.icrc.org  for more information about our work.

As conflict escalates in Ukraine, UNICEF is on the ground reaching children with water, health and education services.

UNICEF has saved more children's lives than any of the international children’s charities. Other organizations help children, but UNICEF does more by fighting for children’s rights and delivering the essentials every child needs for an equitable chance in life.

We advance human dignity and protect the planet through our work on transformative issues critical to humanity’s shared future. We strive to defend progress already made and unlock the collective promise of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across interconnected issues, including climate, health, gender equality, human rights, data and technology, peace, and humanitarian response.

As a strategic partner of the United Nations, we bring together fresh thinking and diverse voices around innovative ideas to drive progress and tackle problems. We build communities of support and nurture initiatives to advance the dignity and well-being of people and planet.

Sometimes we work behind-the-scenes, shaping negotiations and connecting experts, advocates, and decision-makers. Other times we drive public awareness and involvement through communications, campaigns, and events. Always we work to build collective action through the UN, the only place where everyone on earth can have a voice.
