    Experience the humanitarian adventure!
    Closely linked to the name of Geneva, this museum presents the universal subject of humanitarian action. The permanent exhibition is organized into three thematic areas designed by architects from different cultural backgrounds!

    Defending human dignity (Gringo Cardia, Brazil), Reconstructing the family bond (Diébédo Francis Kéré, Burkina Faso), Refusing fatality where prevention is addressed (Shigeru Ban, Japan). They are coordinated by Atelier Oï (Switzerland), also creator of the common spaces.
    In each theme, visitors first pass through an awareness phase, during which they have a strong emotional experience. This is followed by a second phase, providing information and historical background, reminding us that the Red Cross is the world's largest and oldest humanitarian organization.
    Finally, in a room entitled "News Focus", the latest news from the field is presented around a large interactive globe.
