Our fundamental principles, adopted in 1965, remain the foundation of our humanitarian action, guiding us to be neutral, impartial, and independent.

The ICRC responds quickly and efficiently to help people affected by armed conflict, with offices in over 90 countries around the world, providing assistance and protection to those in need.
