RED
CROSS SOCIETY OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
The largest humanitarian organization
in Bosnia and Herzegovina
The
Red Cross Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina (RCSBiH), which
was established on December 15 2000, is a powerful symbol
of reconciliation, demonstrating that civil society in Bosnia
and Herzegovina is active in the efforts towards long-lasting
peace.
On 8th May 2001 The Red Cross Society of BiH was officially
recognized by the ICRC and admitted as full-fledged member
in the International Federation of Red Cross Red crescent
Societies in November 7th 2001 as a 177 member.
With its network of local branches and volunteers, the Red
Cross Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina is the largest humanitarian
organisation in the country. It provides humanitarian assistance
to vulnerable people through Red Cross health and home care
programmes and plays a very important role in the development
of communities by promoting humanitarian values among the
people of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Red Cross Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina implements
its humanitarian work through its two Entity Red Cross organisations
(the Red Cross of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina
and the Red Cross of the Republika Srpska) without discrimination
as to nationality, sex, race, religious beliefs or political
opinion.
The Red Cross Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina works closely
with several National Societies, the International Committee
of the Red Cross and the International Federation of Red Cross
and Red Crescent Societies.
