    Précisions :

    The German Red Cross (GRC) has taken measures to implement the Resolution “Women and leadership in the humanitarian action of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement”. As the GRC developed its Strategy 2030, it incorporated gender balance issues within the broader topic of “diversity”. One of the strategy’s subgoals highlights the objective of the GRC to reflect the diversity of German society (in line with operative paragraphs (OPs) 1 and 3 of the Resolution). Diversity and women’s leadership are also being discussed in the context of the revision of the GRC’s Statutes.

    The GRC General Secretariat has joined the “Together against Sexism” alliance, funded by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth and a Berlin-based independent consulting and research institute working to counter sexism (“Europäische Akademie für Frauen in Politik und Wirtschaft”). The alliance aims to identify sexism and sexual harassment, to take steps to address these issues, and to establish effective countermeasures. This is to ensure that all women and men feel safe and have equal opportunities in their workplaces (in line with OP 4).

    As part of the project “Diversity in the German Red Cross: The path to an inclusive, diverse and discrimination-critical organizational environment”, funded by the European Social Fund, GRC leadership staff and managers are being offered qualification courses from 2024 onwards. Approaches to diversity-sensitive and inclusive leadership will be considered, as well as how equal and participatory structures and processes can be designed (OPs 1 and 4).
