Established in 1975 in Buenos Aires, the delegation moved to Brasilia in late 2009. The ICRC visits security detainees and responds to situations of internal strife and social unrest, often with the region’s National Societies, which it supports in developing their capacity to act in such situations. It also runs a project to address urban violence in Rio de Janeiro. The ICRC promotes the incorporation of IHL into national legislation and into the doctrine, training and operations of the armed forces. It also works with police forces to integrate international human rights law applicable to the use of force into theirs.
