How National Societies, the ICRC, and the IFRC describe different jobs
International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement describes its work as emergency response and disaster relief. The useful question for a visitor is what that looks like in practice, based on the organization's public account.
The work International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement describes
Those parts are the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is made up of three independent parts, united by a purpose of helping without discrimination and by shared Fundamental Principles.
How that work is organized
National Societies provide disaster relief, health, and social programs in their own countries. The ICRC focuses on people affected by armed conflict and on humanitarian law. The Federation supports the volunteer network of National Societies before, during, and after disasters and health emergencies. The parts meet and coordinate so the Movement can act together.
International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement presents this as ongoing work rather than a single event. The public category Looty Foundation uses, Disaster & Humanitarian Relief, is a browsing label. It is not a substitute for the organization's own account of who it serves and how.
