The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the largest humanitarian organization operating in the Democratic People s Republic of Korea (DPRK) since IFRC works in five out of nine provinces and has the most extensive access to the country, especially when compared to other international organizations, as well as non-governmental organizations (NGOs). IFRC works with an average annual budget of CHF 8 million. The IFRC team in the DPRK consists of six international and 12 national staff, and has three programmes - health and care (including water and sanitation), disaster management, and organizational development. The IFRC office further consists of a logistics and finance/administration department, a fleet of six vehicles, four drivers, and one fleet manager. 2. Who are our stakeholders? The 8.25 million people benefiting from DPRK RCS-supported programmes are the main stakeholders. By focusing on a participatory way of working through community assessments, many beneficiaries play an active role in the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the programmes. The DPRK RCS works in the framework of a three-year cooperation agreement strategy (CAS) with IFRC and 13 partner Red Cross Red Crescent societies: Australian, British, Canadian, Danish, Finnish, French, German, Iranian, Italian, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish. The current CAS agreement up to 2015 was signed in between September 2012 and January Chinese RC, Japanese RC and Republic of Korean RC are also partner NSs of DPRK RCS. At county, provincial and national level, the ministries of public health, city management, people s security, land and environmental protection, and education committee contribute with technical advice and material support to the Red Cross programmes. Collaboration with UN agencies consists of information exchange as

The Korean Red Cross Fund kicked off its activities in 2011 and had been supporting DPRK RCS with nutrition and livelihood support for orphanages and communities. Australia GO consulting company, SPF (Secours Populaire Francais), and Taiwan Red Cross Organization are also involved in nutrition and livelihood support in the country. The Red Cross also benefits from specialized expertise of NGOs active in the DPRK where they are called European Union Project Support (EUPS) units. 3. Where have we come from and what have we done so far? Since the start of its operations in 1995, the IFRC has supported the DPRK Red Cross Society (DPRK RCS) in the provision of essential drugs to 8.25 million people through 2,030 clinics nationwide, approximately one third of the population. As drug distribution is not a traditional Red Cross activity, discussions are underway with the DPRK Ministry of Public Health to transfer this responsibility back to the government, while the Red Cross is looking into alternative ways to support the health sector. Through a network of 2,500 first aid posts, Red Cross is giving first aid service to the population to improve their health status through CBHFA programme which includes first aid, disease prevention, and hygiene promotion. Disaster risk reduction measures have been effective in reducing the impact of natural disasters and crisis in peace time in disaster prone areas. Dramatic levels of deforestation are gradually making the country more vulnerable to the detrimental effects of adverse climate change. The Red Cross is looking into short-term flood mitigation measures, as well as longer term, through its extensive community-based disaster risk reduction programme. During the latest floods due to heavy rain and typhoon in 2011 and 2012, the DPRK RCS played a key role in providing emergency relief to the affected population, including emergency needs items, clean drinking water and hygiene promotion. At the same time, the Red Cross is conducting livelihood projects in the vulnerable communities, mainly focusing on the generation of alternative sources of income and job opportunities to reduce the vulnerability and increase the capacity of the community. The revenue is also being used to implement the contingency plans at community level. In ten years, the Red Cross has helped supply over 600,000 people with clean drinking water and proper sanitation facilities at household level. 4. What is our mission?
