Efficient humanitarian logistics can save lives in disaster situations. An efficient relief operation is achieved through well-coordinated processes and a functioning logistical infrastructure. GRC en-sures aid arrives quickly where it’s needed most.
GRC projects always have the objective to strengthen the resilience of the most vulnerable people and the National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies to enable them to better cope with crises and disasters in the future.
The humanitarian situation in Afghanistan has worsened since the change of political power. Asif Khan, Head of Office for the GRC in Islamabad, Pakistan, has visited Kabul to assess the living conditions and needs of the families in Afghanistan.
In cooperation with the national Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies on the ground, the German Red Cross is committed to humanitarian healthcare and the prevention of health crises.
The GRC participates in various research projects with the aim of optimising concepts in the disaster control. The GRC-Research plays a central role as a mediator between science and the active actors in civil protection.
