Comment on the strategy in district workshops
A draft of the Finnish Red Cross strategy has been published. The new strategy aims to strengthen the local activities and preparedness of our organisation and to make the Red Cross a recognised and visible humanitarian advocate. In this way, we will ensure that we can work together to meet the changing needs for aid.
Volunteers, members and employees have the opportunity to comment on the strategy. The strategy and related documents can be found here.
See here for the events and remote workshops organised by the districts for volunteers to comment on the policy.
