providing them adequate supports (icrc.org.,

The Secondary mission is to provide high

More than just global
communityThe several Conventions and Additional
Protocol I allows the Red Cross community to
support victims of natural disaster (Lopičić–Jančić,

community to the social care, which represents
that Red cross more than just a global community.
This community is more dedicated towards
the human rights and humanitarian activities
through crossing the international barrier or legal
policies. Even in intercalation or non-international
armed conflicts, the ICRC has the rights to take
humanitarian action through international Red
Cross community (Hutchinson, 2018).
