Liberia Calls for Global Support for Stronger Humanitarian Response at Red Cross Conference in Geneva

Geneva – The Liberia National Red Cross Society (LNRCS) and representatives of the Liberian government are attending the 34th International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement in Geneva, Switzerland, from October 28 to October 31, 2024.

The conference, which opened on Monday, is organized by the Standing Commission of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement as a key forum for addressing humanitarian issues worldwide, bringing together representatives from governments, donor institutions, educational institutions, and the financial community.

This year’s theme, “Navigate Uncertainty – Strengthen Humanity,” reflects the urgency of fostering stronger humanitarian systems to address escalating global crises and strengthen resilience within vulnerable communities, including those in Liberia.

Liberia’s delegation includes prominent representatives from both the Liberian government and the Liberia National Red Cross Society. The four-member team comprises Mr. Paul W. Tate, Head of Mission of the Liberian Permanent Mission in Geneva; Assistant Minister Karishma Pelham-Raad, who leads the government delegation; Mr. Jerome N. J. Clarke II, National President of the Liberia National Red Cross; and Mr. Gregory T. Blamoh, Secretary General of the Liberia National Red Cross Society.

“This international conference is an essential platform for dialogue on how we can collectively enhance humanitarian efforts, protect beneficiaries, and safeguard humanitarian workers, especially as crises grow in scale and complexity. For Liberia, this is an opportunity to share our experiences, learn from others, and secure more support to bolster our humanitarian response,” said Mr. Gregory T. Blamoh, Secretary General of the LNRCS.

The conference’s theme emphasizes the global commitment to adapting and strengthening humanitarian responses amid rising uncertainty. “The theme, ‘Navigate Uncertainty – Strengthen Humanity,’ could not be more fitting,” remarked Secretary General Blamoh.

Mr. Blamoh added, “It underlines the need for collective resilience and preparedness in humanitarian work. At a time when global events are increasingly unpredictable, our focus must be on unity, collaboration, preparedness, and ensuring that humanitarian principles guide our actions.”

With Liberia facing its own unique challenges, including natural disasters, economic vulnerabilities, and public health issues, the conference presents an invaluable opportunity for the Liberian Red Cross to engage in high-level discussions that can shape policies and secure resources for effective response.

“We return home from this conference more determined to support vulnerable communities, enhance our response capacity, and work alongside partners to meet urgent needs in times of crisis.”
