The International
Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement
Is the largest
humanitarian network in the world with a presence in almost every country.
The Movement has almost 105 million volunteers and a global staff of 300
000 people. The Movement incorporates the Geneva-based International Committee
of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the International Federation of Red Cross and
Red Crescent Societies (Federation) as well as National Societies in 177
countries. At the centre of the Movement are seven core values, or Fundamental
Principles, that shape and direct services and programs all around the
world: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service,
unity and universality. With a vibrant and varied history - from its origins
in the aftermath of battle in 1859 as the vision of founder Henry Dunant,
through two world wars and up to today - the Movement is universally acknowledged
as an unstoppable force of help and compassion during peace and war.

countries, World Red Cross Day is held on 8 May every year to mark the
birth of both the Red Cross Movement, which began in 1863, and the founder's
birthday (Henry Dunant) who was born 8 May, 1828.
