We invite all history enthusiasts to a unique walk through the streets of Warsaw organized by PCK on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising. During the walk, you will see places where the PCK headquarters were located during the war, where hospitals and sanitary points operated by the Red Cross after August 1, 1944, were situated, and finally where the insurgent barricades were set up. You will learn the extraordinary story of the youngest patient, as well as the biography of the heroic Countess Maria Tarnowska, then Vice-President of the organization, who led to the safe evacuation of the civilian population from insurgent Warsaw under the flags of the Red Cross. We will talk about humanitarian law and the Geneva conventions. At the end of the walk, we will meet with an insurgent.
Time and place of gathering:
When? August 24, 10:00 AM

75th anniversary of the adoption of the Geneva Conventions
The year 2024 marks the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the four Geneva Conventions of 1949, as well as the 160th anniversary of the first Geneva Convention of 1864. This is a unique opportunity to underscore the enduring importance of international humanitarian law (IHL) in protecting victims of armed conflict. Created at the initiative of the Red Cross, the conventions express universal human values. They save health, life and dignity.
