Origin of the Red Cross
The germ of the Red Cross was conceived when Henry Dunant following the Battle of Solferino (Italy) in 1859, he organized people to help more than 40,000 people lay dead or wounded without any attention. He therefore proposed the creation of national relief societies to assist wounded in combat, thus pointing the way to the future Geneva Conventions.
The International soon evolved into the three lines of work: humanitarian aid to victims of armed conflicts, humanitarian aid to victims of natural disasters and other peacetime, and preventive action and in favor of social welfare and quality of life.
The Red Cross was born in 1863 when five Geneva citizens, including Dunant founded the International Committee for Relief to the Wounded later would, the International Committee of the Red Cross. The following year, 12 governments adopted the first Geneva Convention guaranteeing aid to the wounded on the battlefield and defining medical services as neutrals. Henry Dunant's work was recognized in 1901 with the first Nobel Peace Prize together with Frédéric Passy.
