Abstract

The presence of the Red Cross is felt under the most varied circumstances—where its help is needed, where human beings are suffering and need assistance. The disparity between the dimensions of the humanitarian tasks which must be carried out in today's world and the modest means available for these tasks should not discourage us—for in wartime and peacetime, under the banners of the Red Cross, Red Crescent and Red Lion and Sun, the members of National Societies, along with various international organizations, are taking action in an ever-increasing variety of fields. Originally present only on the battlefields, they are now to be found doing many new things—protecting the environment, helping aged people, etc.
