  • REPORTING ON VIOLENCE AND EMERGENCIES: Regional Media Conference for Southeast and East Asia

    October 14, 2011Manila, Philippines

  • THE ICRC IN ASIA AND THE PACIFIC

    The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), an independent and non-political organization, has a long history in Asia and the Pacific of providing humanitarian services and expertise. Its work focuses mainly in areas such as emergency response and assistance, international humanitarian law, the restoration of family links, visits to inmates in places of detention, orthopaedic services, water and habitat.

    The ICRC is also a reference institution for detention-related issues and is committed to strengthen the efforts of national authorities in solving humanitarian problems in prisons. It benefits from worldwide recognition through a unique approach based on discretion, transparency, reliability, independence and impartiality. It stands close to vulnerable persons, while engaging with all concerned. The ICRC usually works in partnership with the National Societies of the Red Cross and Red Crescent.

    THE ICRC AROUND THE WORLD

    Established in 1863 in Geneva, the ICRC works in more than 80 countries around the world and has a tradition in responding to the needs of people adversely affected by situations of humanitarian concern, in particular armed conflicts and violence.

    This impartial, neutral and independent organization has an exclusively humanitarian mission to protect and assist victims of armed conflict and other situations of violence. It takes action in response to emergencies and at the same time promotes respect for international humanitarian law and values.

    ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

    The media of East Asia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific have an important role to play in covering conflict and violence as well as the issues faced by vulnerable groups. At times, reporting on these situations put the media’s own safety at risk. Bringing together senior representatives of media organizations from the region, a conference themed “Reporting on Violence and Emergencies” hosted by ICRC aims to advance discussion on best practices related to these topics. The event will also provide a forum to discuss how the media can be influential in limiting the humanitarian consequences of violence and emergencies.

    In August, the ICRC evacuated 33 journalists from the Rixos Hotel in Tripoli, Libya and led them to safety. The reporters had been unable to leave the hotel for several days. The ICRC’s recognized role as a neutral intermediary enabled it to carry out this operation.
