Representatives from the Liberia National Red Cross Society (LNRCS) and the Liberian Government are attending the 34th International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement in Geneva.
This key event brings together global leaders to discuss pressing humanitarian issues and develop strategies for enhanced cooperation.
The conference which ran from October 28 to 31, 2024, was organized by the Standing Commission of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and centered on the theme “Navigate Uncertainty – Strengthen Humanity.”
This theme underscores the urgency of fostering robust humanitarian systems to address escalating global crises and bolster resilience among vulnerable communities, including those in Liberia.
“This conference is a vital platform for enhancing humanitarian efforts and protecting both beneficiaries and humanitarian workers as crises grow in scale and complexity,” stated Mr. Blamoh.
He emphasized that the gathering offers Liberia an opportunity to share experiences, learn from other nations, and secure additional support for humanitarian initiatives.
The theme highlights the necessity for collective resilience and preparedness in the face of unpredictable global events.
Blamoh noted, “Unity, collaboration, and adherence to humanitarian principles are essential as we navigate these uncertainties.”
With Liberia grappling with challenges such as natural disasters, economic instability, and public health concerns, the conference serves as a crucial opportunity for high-level discussions aimed at shaping policies and securing resources for effective humanitarian response.
“As we engage with member states and leaders from the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, we are committed to enhancing our support for vulnerable communities and improving our response capacity,” Blamoh added.
As the conference unfolds, Liberia’s representatives will explore innovative approaches and resources to strengthen the nation’s humanitarian infrastructure and ensure a more effective response to future crises.
