Q. Which day is observed as ‘World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day’?
Answer: 8 May
Notes: Every year on May 8th, World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day honors the efforts of these humanitarian societies, including the IFRC, the largest of its kind. Originating from the 14th International Conference of the Red Cross in 1938, the date marks the birth of Jean Henri Dunant, founder of the Red Cross. Renamed in 1984, this day's theme for 2024, "Everything we do comes from the heart," reflects the compassion driving their actions.
