The '''International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement''' is a global humanitarian network of organizations that strives to alleviate human suffering, uphold human dignity, and foster peace in the world. The movement comprises approximately 97 million volunteers, members, and staff worldwide, making it one of the largest humanitarian organizations globally.

== History ==

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement was founded in 1863 by [[Henry Dunant]], a Swiss businessman moved by the suffering of wounded soldiers during the Battle of Solferino. His book, ''A Memory of Solferino'', inspired the formation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the adoption of the [[Geneva Conventions]].

== Structure ==

The Movement consists of three main components:

* The '''[[International Committee of the Red Cross]] (ICRC)''': An independent, neutral organization ensuring humanitarian protection and assistance for victims of armed conflict and other situations of violence.
* The '''[[International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies]] (IFRC)''': Coordinates international disaster response and support to the National Societies.
* '''[[National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies]]''': These societies operate within specific countries, following the laws of their respective countries.

== Work and Mission ==

The Movement provides a range of services, including disaster response, health and social programs, and promoting humanitarian laws. It operates based on seven fundamental principles: Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity, and Universality.
