Extract

Following an impressive multivision slide show on humanitarian action entitled "The Way Things Are", Botho Prince of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein, as Chairman of the Standing Commission of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, welcomed the participants. He then appealed to governments to facilitate the work of the Movement and to continue supporting its efforts to strengthen humanitarian aid and social assistance. He ended by urging the participants to unite in honouring the Movement's commitment to counteract violence and oppression and to safeguard respect for human life, health and dignity.
