IFRC, (2013), Think differently: Humanitarian impacts of the economic crisis in Europe, Geneva: International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
During the first half of 2013, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) carried out a mapping exercise across the 52 National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies in Europe and Central Asia (IFRC Europe zone). 42 National Societies responded and this report is mainly based on their answers and observations.
The purpose of the mapping exercise was to get an overview of the challenges faced now and how National Societies are responding to the crisis. This report intends to illustrate the human faces of the crisis and highlight the consequences at community and grassroots level, where the Red Cross Red Crescent has a unique insight and connection, and to portray some of the people behind the figures. In addition we examined trends and have strived to substantiate these through supporting statistics from other agencies and sources.
