Our work in Iran
In Iran, the ICRC promotes international humanitarian law (IHL) and humanitarian principles, working with Iranian authorities to address the consequences of the Iran-Iraq War, especially the issue of missing persons. The ICRC also supports the humanitarian response for Afghan migrants, providing health services, physical rehabilitation, and restoring family links. It collaborates closely with the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) and other national partners, and exchanges views with Iranian counterparts on regional humanitarian concerns and global humanitarian policies.
