Civilians must be protected and respected, always.
Parties to conflicts are the only ones with enough power to enforce the rules of war, transform them into reality, and save lives.

Community health workers are on the frontlines of the fight against HIV. They know their communities and help shape solutions that work.

Today is World Red Cross Red Crescent Day, and it comes at a moment of profound alarm.
"Too many of our colleagues have been killed - some while driving ambulances, working in hospitals and responding to emergencies; others while helping people in their own communities. We honour them and mourn alongside their families, loved ones and colleagues.
On this 8 May, we call on all those with influence and responsibility to uphold the protections that civilians, medical personnel, humanitarian workers and communities depend on. Respect for the emblems, for humanitarian rules and principles, is therefore essential."

ALT On this 8 May, we call on all those with influence and responsibility to uphold the protections that civilians, medical personnel, humanitarian workers and communities depend on. Respect for the emblems, for humanitarian rules and principles, is therefore essential. Today, we also say to colleagues across our Movement: we see you, we thank you and we stand with you. At a time when division, violence and disregard for human suffering are testing the limits, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement remains united in humanity.\u201D

Thank you, #Geneva, for illuminating the Jet dāEau to mark #WorldImmunizationWeek.
The greatest gift we can offer any people at any age is protection from disease through vaccines, helping them safeguard themselves, their loved ones, and generations to come.
For every generation, vaccines work.

The quiet victories of international cooperation ā the wars prevented, the famine averted, the vital treaties secured ā do not always make the headlines.
Yet they matter.
To secure more such victories, we must fully respect international law & defend multilateralism.
