What we can offer media
Firsthand reports from the field
The IFRC and our National Societies are often first on the scene when disasters strike and the last to leave. Our volunteers and staff have deep knowledge of humanitarian crises and local contexts. And they can reach places others cannot.
Expert comment and opinion
The IFRC is home to experts from around the world on the most pressing global humanitarian issues such as health, climate change, migration, disaster law and much more.
Access to IFRC leaders
We can facilitate interviews with senior leaders for comment on IFRC activities and priorities, as well as developments in the humanitarian sector.
