The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is a neutral, impartial and independent humanitarian organization that works to protect and assist people affected by armed conflict and other situations of violence. To find out more about ICRC mission and its activities visit www.icrc.org.

The MOUV Division aims to ensure that the ICRC forms effective working relationships and partnerships within the network of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (the Movement) to protect and assist people affected by armed conflict and other situations of violence. It works to strengthen the operational capacities of the National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies accordingly and their ability to adhere at all times to the Fundamental Principles. To support ICRC programs across the globe regarding its cooperation and relations with other Movement components, it relies on its ability to translate data into usable insights to better support other divisions/departments both at HQ and field in engaging with other Movement components to respond to the needs of affected people. To address this need, a new CRM tool, called Red Loop is in development.

The ICRC supports the Economic Security (EcoSec) of individuals, households and communities affected by armed conflict and other situations of violence, by helping them to cover their essential needs and/or maintain or restore sustainable livelihoods. Economic Security (EcoSec) staff is more and more involved in data and information collection, management, analysis and reporting practices in their work to assess need, design and manage programs and fulfill reporting requirements.
