RedR International

RedR is a federation of national accredited RedR organisations registered in Geneva, who share a common Vision and Mission.

RedR is independent. The national organisations, whilst they may act in the humanitarian service of their governments and whilst they be associated with other organisations, maintain their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with the principles of RedR.

At present there are RedR organisations in 7 countries including India. The others are located in:

• United Kingdom
• Australia
• Canada
