Power of humanity
The International Federation 's collective mission 'to improve the lives of vulnerable people by mobilising the power of humanity ' is an ambitious goal, but one rarely more needed than now. The tragic events over the latter months of 2001 have shown how much the world requires a global, neutral, unified and able humanitarian organisation such as the Red Cross and Red Crescent. Fear and uncertainty grip our world, as they have not done for many decades. Labels of nationality, ethnicity and religion appear to be becoming more important in the minds of many.

Earthquake in South Asia - India and Pakistan Affected Update May 2001

Report
— Catholic Relief Services
Almost all the world knows the story of the January earthquake. Measuring 7.7 on the Richter scale, the quake demolished homes, destroyed lives and made national headlines. The earthquake remains an emergency as the country scrambles to recover from the damage. What the world doesn't know about is the drought that plagues the same area. Three years with no rains has turned vast regions into deserts. Temperatures now exceed 100 degrees during the day in this drought and earthquake ravaged area.
