Since 1998, the « Week of Internationale Solidarity» is organized every year.
Most of the time, this operation consists in debates between the professional actors of solidarity (associations, communities, cultural venues, schools) and the public opinion, in order to raise public awareness concerning the need of humanitarian aid.
All the main issues are discussed, from sustainable development to fair trade, from international voluntary service to Human Rights. All those debates take place within various animations.
This year, the " Week of International Solidarity " will take place from 14 till 22 November and will concern essentially the issue of climate change. A single watchword: "Do not negotiate with climate: act!".
A few weeks only before the summit of Copenhagen, this week was the ideal opportunity to remind the leaders of the whole world the importance of an agreement. Throughout the week, all the climatic changes oriented subjects will be approached: greenhouse gas, protection of environment and population and of course concrete solutions.
In this context, the Red Helmet Foundation considered naturally important to inform students of increasing number of natural disasters resulting from the climate change.
We were present on Tuesday, November 16th, io the ISG campus, to communicate our urgent message concerning the necessity of rethinking the humanitarian aid and of creating an international humanitarian strength of fast reaction to face the environmental turnovers.
