What we do

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) works worldwide to provide protection and humanitarian assistance to people affected by conflict and armed violence. We take action in response to emergencies and, at the same time, promote respect for international humanitarian law. We are an independent and neutral organization, and our mandate stems essentially from the Geneva Conventions of 1949. We work closely with National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and with their International Federation in order to ensure a concerted, rational and rapid humanitarian response to the needs of the victims of armed conflict or any other situation of internal violence. We direct and coordinate the international activities conducted in these situations.

Context

In the context of growing humanitarian needs, the ICRC launched its Resource Mobilization Strategy 2020-2030 to guide fundraising over the course of the next decade. It provides ambitious targets, including to diversify its income streams. This strategy is underpinned by the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement Movement-wide Principles for Resource Mobilization.
The Strategy outlines five orientations to guide the ICRC’s evolution to deliver increasing and diversified income for ICRC and other Movement components with which it actively collaborates, including developing an enabling brand and becoming a fundraising organization.
