About the ICRC ICRC activities The ICRC worldwide Focus ... Afghanistan Section The ICRC in Afghanistan Donate now Kabul. Children reading a brochure on mine awareness. The ICRC has gradually been scaling back assistance activities in Afghanistan with the improvement of harvests, increased commerce and a greater involvement of organizations active in long-term reconstruction projects. Security constraints also hamper operations in many areas. Nevertheless, the ICRC continues to provide support for selected hospitals and for six physical rehabilitation centres largely devoted to helping landmine victims. The institution also runs programmes to highlight the dangers posed by unexploded ordnance and rehabilitates water and sanitation services. Visits to people detained by Afghan authorities or the United States-led coalition remain a top priority, along with efforts to restore or maintain links between members of families separated by years of conflict. The promotion of IHL among weapons bearers and the strengthening of the Afghan Red Crescent Society are other priorities. The ICRC has been present in Afghanistan since 1986.

International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Nobel Prize for Peace in both 1917 and 1944. It shared another Nobel Peace Prize with the League of Red Cross Societies in 1963, the year of the 100th anniversary of the ICRC's founding. The International Committee of the Red Cross was formed in response to the experiences of its founder, Jean-Henri Dunant , at the Battle of Solferino in 1859. Dunant witnessed thousands of wounded soldiers left to die for lack of adequate medical services. Soliciting help from neighbouring civilians, Dunant organized care for the soldiers. In 1862 he published an account of the situation at Solferino; by 1863 he had garnered so much support that the Geneva Society for Public Welfare helped found the International Committee for the Relief of the Wounded. In 1875 this organization became the International Committee of the Red Cross. The ICRC is now one component of a large network including national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. (The Red Crescent was adopted in lieu of the Red Cross in Muslim countries.) The governing body of the ICRC is the Committee, consisting of no more than 25 members. All the members are Swiss, in part due to the origins of the Red Cross in Geneva but also to establish neutrality so any countries in need can receive aid. The Committee meets in assembly 10 times each year to ensure that the ICRC fulfills its duties as the promoter of international humanitarian law and as the guardian of the Fundamental Principles of the Red Cross: "humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality."

The Geneva Conventions, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Rights of Prisoners of War The Geneva Conventions are the primary legal documents of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) which encompasses humanitarian principles and international treaties that seek to save lives and alleviate suffering of both combatants and noncombatants during armed conflicts. The International Committee of the Red Cross is the principal humanitarian organization named in all four 1949 Geneva Conventions for carrying out many of the relief activities for victims of armed conflicts. The primary body of laws expressing the rights and protections of prisoners of war (POWs) are contained in the Third Geneva Convention. Development of the Geneva Conventions and the International Red Cross Movement The development of IHL coincides with the creation of the International Red Cross Movement in Switzerland in the middle of the 19th Century. A Swiss businessman, Henri Dunant, witnessed the aftermath of a bloody battle in 1859 between French and Austrian armies near the northern Italian town of Solferino. With thousands of wounded and dying men left on the battlefield without medical care, Dunant enlisted nearby residents to render what relief they could. Deeply moved by this experience, Dunant wrote a book, A Memory of Solferino , that described what he had witnessed and called for the establishment of civilian volunteer relief corps to care for the wounded in battle. In 1863, the Geneva Society for Public Welfare took up his cause and created a committee of five, including Dunant, which became known as the International Committee of the Red Cross. In 1864, this committee brought together the representatives of 16 European states who adopted the first Geneva Convention, a treaty designed to save lives and alleviate the suffering of wounded and sick military personnel. The conference also formerly established the red cross on a white field (the reverse of the Swiss flag) as the protective emblem for those serving the wounded.
