RED CROSS - 150TH ANNIVERSARY

The ICRC together with the VII Photo agency has launched a worldwide campaign to raise awareness of today’s most pressing humanitarian challenges. As part of the campaign, which marks the 150th anniversary of the Red Cross, the ICRC sent five photographers from VII to eight conflict-affected countries to examine up-close the suffering caused by war and violence.

An exhibition of the work is being shown in 40 countries.
