Danish Red Cross: Views on multilateral and bilateral relations in development within the Red Cross

Abstract

According to the Strategy for the Development of National Societies in the Eighties, adopted at the International Conference of the Red Cross in Manila in 1981, development is “the process of strengthening the capacity of National Societies to provide Red Cross services based on national resources. It is thus concerned with both the development of National Societies' operational structures and with the development of the services they provide.”
