Humanity The International Red Cross and Red Cres-cent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the bat-tlefield, 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 nation-ality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions.
It endeavours 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 enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, reli-gious or ideological nature.
Independence The Movement is independent. The National Societies, while auxiliaries in the humani-tarian 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 Red Cres-cent 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.
The Code of Conduct for The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and NGOs in Disaster Relief, was developed and agreed upon by eight of the world’s largest disaster response agencies in the sum-mer of 1994.
The Code of Conduct, like most professional codes, is a voluntary one. It lays down ten points of principle which all humanitarian actors should adhere to in their disaster response work, and goes on to describe the relationships that agencies working in disasters should seek with donor governments, host govern-ments and the UN system.
The code is self-policing. There is as yet no interna-tional association for disaster-response NGOs which possesses any authority to sanction its members. The Code of Conduct continues to be used by the Inter-national Federation to monitor its own standards of relief delivery and to encourage other agencies to set similar standards.
It is hoped that humanitarian actors around the world will commit themselves publicly to the code by becoming a signatory and by abiding by its principles.
Governments and donor organizations may want to use the code as a yardstick against which to measure the conduct of those agencies with which they work.
Disaster-affected communities have a right to ex-pect that those who assist them measure up to these standards.
Principles of Conduct for the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and NGOs in Disaster Response Programmes
1. The humanitarian imperative comes first.
2. Aid is given regardless of the race, creed or na-tionality of the recipients and without adverse distinction of any kind. Aid priorities are calcu-lated on the basis of need alone.
3. Aid will not be used to further a particular politi-cal or religious standpoint.
4. We shall endeavour not to act as instruments of government foreign policy.
5. We shall respect culture and custom.
6. We shall attempt to build disaster response on local capacities.
7. Ways shall be found to involve programme ben-eficiaries in the management of relief aid.
8. Relief aid must strive to reduce future vulnera-bilities to disaster as well as meeting basic needs.
9. We hold ourselves accountable to both those we seek to assist and those from whom we accept resources.
10. In our information, publicity and advertizing ac-tivities, we shall recognize disaster victims as dig-nified human beings, not hopeless objects.
