The IFRC response
• Strategy 2020 – a ten year strategy focused on saving lives and changing minds
• Shaped by the vulnerabilities of the communities where National Societies work, adherence to the Fundamental Principles, and individual rights and freedoms
• Guides the IFRC and member National Societies in tackling the major challenges confronting humanity
• Advanced by three strategic aims (what we will do) and three enabling actions (how we will do it)
