Promoting women’s health worldwide
The ICRC cares for all the victims of conflict but it adapts this care to meet their needs. Specific services for women affected by conflict include support for rape victims, medical care for women in places of detention, antenatal and postnatal care for mothers and babies, the provision of hygiene requisites/training and rehabilitation for female mine victims.

The programme teaches selected groups of students about HIV/AIDS. In turn, these students teach others in their environment, promoting HIV awareness among young people.
