Europe and the Americas - ICRC Annual Report

31-12-2010 Annual Report No 2010

In 2010, the ICRC’s priorities were: to assist and improve the protection of people directly affected by an ongoing armed conflict or other situation of violence, including displaced persons, particularly in Colombia, the Caucasus and Kyrgyzstan; to help clarify the fate of people unaccounted for from past and current conflicts and provide support for their families; and to contribute to better protection of people deprived of their freedom. The ICRC also continued to promote IHL and other applicable norms, and to foster a deeper understanding of its role and activities among authorities, armed and security forces, universities and schools.
