19.04.2024: The Balkan regional branch of the NRCST held a training exercise to improve emergency preparedness.

According to the approved scenario, refugees from a neighboring country crossed the border of our country. They were met at the border and taken by bus to a temporary accommodation camp. The mission of Red Cresent and other organizations is to provide decent housing to the oppressed. Temporary accommodation with all conditions for a comfortable life, a registration point and command post, a medical center, a school and a kindergarten, a canteen, a humanitarian aid distribution point and other life support points have been established. The Balkan regional office of the NRCST was responsible for the housing sector and the humanitarian aid distribution point. They set up family tents and stocked them with essentials: bedding, sanitary and hygiene equipment. The purpose of such exercises is to improve the readiness of all organizations and institutions for the success of the refugee reception operation in any case.

 

 

THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

– Humanity

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance
without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavours, in its international and
national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose
is to protect life and health and to ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual
understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all peoples.

– Impartiality

It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. It
endeavors to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, and to give
priority to the most urgent cases of distress.

– Neutrality

In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or
engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature.

– Independence

The Movement is independent. The National Societies, while auxiliaries in the humanitarian services
of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, must always maintain
their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with the principles of the
Movement.

– Voluntary service

It is a voluntary relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain.

– Unity

There can be only one Red Cross or one Red Crescent Society in any one country. It must be open
to all. It must carry on its humanitarian work throughout its territory.

– Universality

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, in which all Societies have equal status
and share equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other, is worldwide.
