“Multicultural horizons: a challenge and an opportunity for international aid”
To discuss how an organization like the Red Cross integrates the intercultural dimension into its international projects, the Luxembourg Red Cross has brought together a panel of experts.
- Rémi Fabbri, Director of Humanitarian Aid at the Luxembourg Red Cross
- Thierry Janssen, medical doctor, founder of Ecole de la Posture Juste,
- Gloria Lombo K. Polo, General Secretary of the Red Cross DRC,
- Abdel Nefnaf, graduate educator, group leader at the “Foyer Jacoby” living group at the CANE service,
- Laura Zuccoli, President of ASTI for 12 years.
The discussion will be moderated by Ophélie de Soto, psychologist at the Luxembourg Red Cross.
The free conference will be held on November 18 at 4:30 p.m. in French.
HELPING YOUTH IN DISTRESS
Throughout the weekend, visitors of the Bazar will be able to meet professional and volunteer teams from the Luxembourg Red Cross who offer a personalized and relevant response for each situation: psychological or educational support, organization of vacations, work with people experiencing social or family breakdown. The Humanitarian Aid will be presenting the challenges faced by the Red Cross abroad, particularly with regard to children and young people, through an escape game and a conference.
Support for young people and families is not limited to the national territory. The International Aid teams of the Luxembourg Red Cross aim to provide the greatest possible relief to families directly affected by the consequences of a natural disaster, conflict or pandemic.
THE LUXEMBOURG CITY SECTION
More than 600 volunteers make up the local chapter in Luxembourg City. It is thanks to their efforts that a large number of initiatives are organized, including the Red Cross Bazar and Ball.
The Luxembourg City branch is one of 32 local branches of the Luxembourg Red Cross throughout the country. They are the platform for action for some 1,500 volunteers, and are the living expression of the Red Cross’s closeness to the country and its people, which has been the case for over a century.
In April, all local sections get actively involved in the annual “Month of Giving” fundraising campaign.
