Lebanese Red Cross
The Standing Commission is also responsible for awarding the Red Cross and Red Crescent Prize for Peace and Humanity. It was created in 1987 and is given either to National Societies or to persons in the Movement “who have actively contributed to a more peaceful world through humanitarian action and the dissemination of the ideals of the Movement”. Only four recipients have received it so far, the Lebanese Red Cross in 1989, the Somali Red Crescent in 1993, the Syrian Arab Red Crescent in 2013, and Dr Mohammed Al-Hadid of the Jordan National Red Crescent Society in 2019.
