International Humanitarian Law Campaign – We all have a role to play
The Irish Red Cross, as part of the wider International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement, assists in the promotion and dissemination of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) in Ireland. This involves raising awareness of what IHL is, and how it applies across all sectors of society. We do this through organising campaigns and events, such as an annual IHL Conference, and an IHL university competition. In this campaign, we highlight the role the Red Cross has in IHL, as well as the roles of the Irish government and the wider EU.
