In October 2014, the ICRC launched a new e-learning on health care responsibilities in times of conflict and other emergencies.
This module is specifically designed to help health-care personnel understand the effects of violence...
"Health Care in Danger"
is an ICRC-led project of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent
Movement aimed at improving the efficiency and delivery of impartial
health care in armed conflict and other emergencies. The International
Council of Nurses, the World Medical Association, the International
Pharmaceutical Federation, and the International Committee on Military
Medicine have joined the project to contribute their expertise and to
promote its aims among their members.
This e-learning module is an
essential tool bringing clarity to all and will empower physicians
worldwide," said Dr. Xavier Deau, President of the World Medical
Association. "It will enable them to understand their rights and
responsibilities and ethical obligations in situations of emergency. The
WMA warmly welcomes this ICRC initiative."
