Dunant and the Birth of the Red Cross in Geneva
Henri Dunant’s advocacy led to the 1863 Geneva Conference and the creation of the Geneva International Committee. Delegates from fourteen governments backed neutral medic military aid and the red cross emblem, laying the groundwork for a 1864 international pact protecting war wounded and care providers.

Britain’s loneliest outpost St Kilda ends seasonal tours and will be isolated until May.
