Women and War: "Points of View"
To mark this year's International Women's Day, we invited ICRC staff in Geneva to reflect on an array of photographs highlighting the theme of Women and War. The photo collection "Points of View" presents a series of 19 pictures taken by a variety of photographers worldwide and accompanied by a selection of personal observations.

"I remember visiting this woman. All she has is this little window. It's her window to the world. She's a woman who knows a little bit of English. She only knows words from songs, and when we used to see her we used to sing together. She makes you feel you're standing on top of the world singing with her. She's really a happy soul."

Christine Robiez-Foletti, communication delegate
