From that day on, he made it his life mission to assist and protect people in times of conflict and crisis. Historian François Bugnion brings you the remarkable story of the man who laid the foundation for international humanitarian law and the International Committee of the Red Cross. ----- The ICRC is on the ground in over 90 countries, providing humanitarian aid to victims of conflict and violence.
