The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies reaches 160 million people each year through its 189-member National Societies. It acts before, during and after disasters and health emergencies to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people. It does so with impartiality as to nationality, race, gender, religious beliefs, class and political opinions.
Guided by Strategy 2020 – the IFRC’s collective plan of action to tackle the major humanitarian and development challenges of this decade – the IFRC is committed to ‘saving lives and changing minds.'
The IFRC’s strength lies in its volunteer network, community-based expertise and independence and neutrality. It works to improve humanitarian standards, as partners in development and in response to disasters. It persuades decision makers to act in the interests of vulnerable people. It works to enable healthy and safe communities, reduce vulnerabilities, strengthen resilience and foster a culture of peace around the world.
The seven Fundamental Principles that guide the work of the IFRC and its members are: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity and universality.
In light of noteworthy helpful needs taking after the seismic tremor in Nepal, the IFRC has propelled a 33.4 million Swiss franc crisis speak to give basic administrations including nourishment, safe house and water and sanitation help for 75,000 defenseless individuals. The request was propelled after a beginning Disaster Relief Emergency Fund distribution of 500,000 Swiss francs, which was enacted to guarantee assets are accessible quickly.
