  • Brief Overview of the Slovenian Red Cross
    BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE SLOVENIAN RED CROSS www.rks.si December 2018 The SRC shall help prevent and alleviate human suffering, protect life and health, promote healthy life by being active and guarantee the respect of human rights, especially during armed conflicts, natural disasters and other cases of emergency. INTRODUCTION The Slovenian Red Cross as an independent national society grew from the insights, will, efforts and work of numerous generations of Red Cross members in Slovenia. Among almost one hundred humanitarian organizations in Slovenia, the Slovenian Red Cross is the most recognizable. One of the important pillars of the Slovenian Red Cross reputation is an intact tradition of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and consistent implementation of the Fundamental Principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity and universality. Furthermore, the amazing results that no other humanitarian organization in Slovenia can achieve in such a large scope and reach speak for itself. The Slovenian Red Cross irreplaceable contribution towards health and prosperity of Slovenians is vividly shown in implementation of public programs such as: Blood Donation; First Aid; Disaster Preparedness and Disaster Response and in strong Social Welfare activities. Some figures that might illustrate the role of SRC in society better: yearly, more than 10% of the population receives assistance by Slovenian Red Cross; almost 100.000 Blood Donors help in saving numerous lives; more than 15.000 children spent healthy and worry free holidays by the sea in the Slovenian Red Cross Youth and Health Resort Debeli rtic. All this is possible due to more than 13.000 Red Cross volunteers, who yearly accomplish more than 500.000 hours of voluntary work.

  • Side Events at the 32Nd International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent
    Side events at the 32nd International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent 1. Action to combat impunity and improve accountability for victims and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence: practical tools and experiences Hosts: Canada, Japan, United Kingdom and United States of AmericaLanguages: English, French, Spanish, Arabic Where: room 18 When: Thursday 10 December 2015, 12:00-13:00 Description: Drawing on first-hand experience from sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) experts who have directly investigated and prosecuted crimes and/or engaged in survivor-centred prevention strategies in the field, this event seeks to elicit practical tools and experiences across humanitarian settings, both conflict and non-conflict. With an interactive question and answer format that invites participation from the audience, different humanitarian and justice sector actors will have the opportunity to share lessons learned. More specifically, we will be looking at different tools, including: the Guidelines for Gender- based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Settings; Standard Operating Procedures for Prevention of and Response to SGBV; the International Protocol on the Documentation and Investigation of Sexual Violence in Conflict and initiatives such as Justice Rapid Response deployments; the _Safe from the Start_ initiative and the Roadmap for the Call to Action on Protection from Gender-based Violence in Emergencies. In doing so, we will consider the wider framework and multi-sectoral model. What accountability and justice mean and how to effectively deliver them across humanitarian and crisis situations will be questioned and examined. We will also touch on the achievements and challenges of prosecuting SGBV crimes in the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY).

  • Centenary Historians' Conference
    Centenary Historians’ Conference media.ifrc.org/ifrc/speech/centenary-historians-conference/ Elhadj As Sy International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) Secretary General Date: Thursday, 13 June, 2019 Event: Centenary Historians’ Conference Location: Geneva, Switzerland Thank you David, and thank you all. Let me first of all welcome you to the IFRC, and thank you for putting in so much effort, thought, intellect and competence in looking at the history of our Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. And particularly so in this year, when we take stock and reflect on our 100 years. There is a popular saying in my culture that if you don’t know where you’re going, you go back to where you came from. In my mother tongue it translates literally to ‘know your past to better shape your future’. And this saying is often used in that culture by what we call the Praise Singers. When soldiers were preparing for war, praise singers would remind them of their past, and the stories of their ancestors, to fill them with courage. So, we go back to our history and use it as a source of strength. But it’s not only used in the context of waging wars – it’s also used when leaders are faced with difficult decisions, in difficult times at family, community and national levels. The Praise Singers would take them back to history with stories of courage, forgiveness, reconciliation, care, support and humility: examples that serve as sources of inspiration and motivation to do nothing less than shape a better future.

  • A Strong Resolve to End Violence Against Health Care
    A strong resolve to end violence against health care Open letter To all United Nations Member States: We continue to sound the alarm. Scores of health-care workers are being killed or injured while caring for sick and wounded men, women and children during armed conflicts. Countless are prevented from carrying out their duties. We must do more for them and for the civilian populations affected by this unacceptable situation. It’s a matter of life and death. Firm action is needed to stop the violence against health-care providers, the bombing of hospitals and the destruction of ambulances that prevent entire communities from receiving life-saving services. These acts of violence exacerbate the impact of war on people, bringing more deaths, more disabilities, higher disease rates and greater physical and mental suffering. The consequences of these acts will be felt for decades. It is time to reaffirm that wars have limits. That is why we, as members of and partners in the Health Care in Danger initiative, welcome the action taken by the UN Security Council to adopt a resolution on this issue. This resolution represents a vital opportunity – one that must not be missed. Today, 3 May 2016, we call on all UN Member States to wholeheartedly support the measures detailed in UN Security Council Resolution S/280 and those produced under the Health Care in Danger initiative. We appeal to all UN Member States, in line with the resolution adopted by the Security Council today, to reaffirm the relevance of international humanitarian law – a sound body of law which seeks to bring humanity to an inhumane situation.

  • The Growing Role of Ngos in Disaster Relief and Humanitarian
    !e Growing Role of NGOs in Disaster Relief and Humanitarian 5 Assistance in East Asia Y OSA O three decades, East Asia has been the most disaster- prone region in the world. More than percent of all people affected by disasters worldwide during the last years lived in East Asia, and the region accounted for almost percent of total damages and nearly percent of disaster-related fatalities during that period. In order to meet the urgent humanitarian needs that arise out of these disasters, civil so- ciety organizations (CSOs), especially nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), have begun playing a major role in the region in providing disaster relief. Yet they still face many challenges. To better understand them, this chapter reviews the theoretical framework of disaster relief and humanitarian assistance and then assesses the contributions of civil society in Asia by mapping out the nongovernmental initiatives that are taking place throughout the region in this field. N D A 4e compound effects of climate change, environmental and ecological imbalance, growing populations and increasing population density, rapid urbanization, deforestation, and desertification are often cited as factors behind the increasing occurrence of natural disasters all over the world. In Asia in particular, increasing urbanization, the shift of populations into low-lying coastal areas, and environmental degradation seem to be making natural and manmade disasters more frequent and severe. Table && Disaster Relief and Humanitarian Assistance illustrates the heavy toll that natural disasters have taken on East Asia. 4ese disasters clearly have had a serious impact on human security—as well as national security—in the region.
