Our Fundamental Principles

Around the world, whenever a humanitarian crisis occurs, the Red Cross or Red Crescent is always one of the first organisations on the scene thanks to our kind volunteers. 

Our volunteers and staff are guided by the seven fundamental principles of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement: Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity and Universality.

Today, the challenges posed by an unpredictable and often changing global landscape have never been greater. But our principles still ring true.

They guide us through adversity. They command respect. They make the Red Cross unique.
