As part of the Pakistan Red Crescent response to the return of Afghan migrants from Pakistan to Afghanistan, programing has been established for children and adults in vulnerable situations. The main features of the program implemented by PRCS for Afghan returnees include the establishment of Humanitarian Services Point (HSP) in Torkham Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, a medical care facility at Chaman in Baluchistan province, and provision of essential services such as health care, safe drinking water, and gender-sensitive sanitation facilities targeting 60,000 people under an IFRC supported operation. The program integrates Protection, Gender, and Inclusion (PGI) and Community Engagement and Accountability to ensure the dignity, safety, and participation of diverse groups including children, women, the elderly, and persons with disabilities.

Every person has a right to live free from violence and fear. Red Cross has a responsibility to ensure the safety of the people we work with and support.
This practice guide is designed to support Red Cross people to identify and respond to family violence concerns they may encounter when working with individuals, families and communities.

Developed by the Australian Red Cros

These guidelines developed by the Australian Red Cross outline the support available to Australian Red Cross people (employees, volunteers, and members) and contractors or sub-contractors, work experience students, trainees and apprentices who may be experiencing domestic or family violence.

This Safety Planning Guide has been developed by the Australian Red Cross. What is a safety plan? A personalised, practical plan that can help a person to recognise and respond to known safety threats. It provides simple and clear guidance on how a person can act to keep themselves and others safe should the threat arise, including what to do, who to contact and where to go. The danger or threat may be something that impacts a person’s physical, emotional, or mental wellbeing. Safety plans are intended to mitigate specific dangers and provide short term, practical options for the person to increase their safety.

Emergencies exacerbate existing gender inequalities, and the incidence of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), violence against children and trafficking in human beings often increase during and after emergencies. These standards are to be used by all Red Cross and Red Crescent staff and volunteers, and as a key reference for partners and other stakeholders interested in the IFRC’s approach to Protection, Gender and Inclusion (PGI) issues.
