Humanitarians are often first to respond in every crisis. Their protection isn’t optional, it is essential to saving lives.
They must be protected. #ProtectHumanity

Being a humanitarian is not just a job. It is a job that saves lives. #UnitedInHumanity #JoinTheMovement

Today is World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day.

Across the world, volunteers and staff from the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement show up every day for people in crisis, responding in their own communities, helping neighbours, supporting families, and standing on the frontlines of emergencies that affect them too.

Because beyond every emergency, every response, and every emblem, there is one truth: we are United in Humanity. #UnitedInHumanity

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

Despite the obstacles and challenges our volunteers and staff experience, their dedication remains unwavering.

We celebrate them for turning compassion into action, helping, healing and standing beside communities when it matters most.

Communities in the Zambezi Region face floods, drought & rising food insecurity. Crops are lost & water is unsafe.

The Namibia Red Cross, with support from @IFRCAfrica is responding—but needs remain high.
More support is critical.

#ZambeziRegion #HumanitarianAction

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

In the Zambezi Region, Namibia, floodwaters have receded, but the impact continues to affect communities.

Families and livestock were displaced, while homes, crop fields, roads, schools, and clinics were damaged, leaving over 2,000 people affected.

In areas still surrounded by water, communities rely on makeshift boats crafted from tree wood to reach safety and access basic services.

At the same time, the risk of waterborne diseases is rising, adding to concerns for already vulnerable households.

NRCS team is conducting a Post-Distribution Monitoring & beneficiary visits in Zambezi & Kunene under the Emergency Appeal (EA) supported @ifrc.

Using Kobo & Focus Group Discussions, we’re collecting feedback to strengthen our response.

Even in the darkest of times, the signs of humanity shine brightly.

Thank you for everything you do to keep humanity alive.

Volunteers are the heartbeat of humanity.

Across 191 countries, 17 million Red Cross and Red Crescent volunteers respond to crises and drive local action with global impact.

2026 is #InternationalVolunteerYear, a year to celebrate them.

Every child deserves a future free from polio.

Namibia will conduct Round 3 of the Polio Vaccination Campaign from 27–30 April 2026.

All children aged 0–10 years should be vaccinated, including those who turned 10 after receiving Round 0, 1, and 2 doses.
