The Geneva Conventions, adopted 76 years ago today and ratified worldwide, are the backbone of international humanitarian law. They:

🔹 Protect those who are not or no longer fighting.
🔹 Save lives and reduce suffering.

Even in armed conflicts, humanity must prevail.

[ICRC @ICRC]

The Geneva Conventions were, are, and will be fundamental in setting clear boundaries to protect those who are not participating in hostilities.

Daniel Palmieri, an ICRC historian, explains why they continue to safeguard human dignity in situations of armed conflict 👇🏽

On the side of Humanity

Today we mark #WorldRCRCDay 2025 by celebrating the 7 Fundamental Principles that guide our work—Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity & Universality.

[ICRC @ICRC]

The deaths of our colleagues demand more than empty words of outrage: they demand action.

The international community cannot keep looking away as the rules of war are ignored, and humanitarian workers deliberately targeted while trying to save lives.

Staying neutral allows us to do our job. It is not indifference: it is a deliberate choice.

Our mission comes from the Geneva Conventions, universal laws that preserve a degree of humanity, even in war. Today, 161 years since our founding, neutrality remains as crucial as ever.
