Int Conference of #RedCross starts with moment of silence in memory of 93 volunteers and staff killed in the line of duty since 2016. Humanitarian volunteers must be #protected#promoted and #recognised -> find the @RCRCViCE exhibit on this at @CICG_Geneva 2nd floor #RCRC19
This. Local action/local leadership/localisation. Call it what you want. These are local/national volunteers & staff of @SYRedCrescent reaching people in dire need & where international actors have little access to. Yet local actors receive 2.9% of global humanitarian funding.
Fantastic @UUKIntl event celebrating #RutherfordFellows. At @NUIntDev researchers from the Occupied Palestinian Territories are working with @mbailliesmith and @casesofyou to examine the relationship between volunteering and citizenship #RutherfordFund
