The Red Cross and Red Crescent in Conflicts

In the first session we learned of its origins with Swiss businessman Henri Dunant chancing on the aftermath of a battle and being moved not only to help the soldiers there but also future generations of soldiers around the world. In this session we show you how Henri Dunant’s dreams are being enacted in the war zones of Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe

How to use this resource

There are 5 Rays, which provide a programme for one year’s sessions for a children’s group running during term-time. For each Ray, there is a set of topics, each of which comprises a theme for a term or half-term.

The sessions are presented in a pick-and-mix way - some information, some games, crafts, videos, etc. You are encouraged to adapt the material to your own setting , the time you have available and the resources you have. Don’t think that you have to do everything on offer.
