💬 "Today on October 10, World Mental Health Day is marked across the globe under the theme of “Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change“. With more than 18 million staff and volunteers under our banner – the majority of whom are part of the communities they serve – the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement is defined by lived experience. For the Movement localisation is not an ambition – it is a reality – it is our organisational DNA and has been in place since our inception in 1863.

I would like to take the opportunity to commemorate our volunteers and staff across the globe including the 110,000 to 125,000 peers delivering mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) services in communities affected by armed conflict, emergencies and disasters. Red Cross and Red Crescent volunteers are the truest expression of humanity. I would also like to acknowledge that their dedication is also a sacrifice – that their physical and mental wellbeing is part of their investment – and that accordingly we have an obligation to protect and support them..."

Peers on the frontline between loss and hope

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) recently released the latest edition of the International Review of the Red Cross focusing on Mental health and armed conflict. The Red Cross Red Crescent Movement MHPSS Hub has launched a podcast-series in cooperation with the ICRC and the authors of some of the key-articles to discuss the findings and insights they offer.

This second episode moderated by MHPSS Hub Communication Officer, Villads Zahle takes off from a contribution entitled 'Voices from the front line: Mental health and psychosocial experiences of Red Cross Red Crescent volunteers and staff working in armed conflict contexts' authored by MHPSS Advisors Arz Stephan, Ganna Goloktionova, Cátia Peres de Matos and Shona Whitton MHPSS Technical Team Lead - all staff members of the MHPSS Hub.

We invited one of the authors, Shona Whitton, to help us explore the mental health and psychosocial experiences of national volunteers and staff based on the findings of the study and the actual words of some of our colleagues in the frontlines.

In advance of 2026 with the official theme “Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change" we share testimonies from Nepal.

In late August floods triggered by the collapse of a glacier near Langtang Lirung left a trail of destruction and thousands of people dead or missing. Volunteers from Nepal Red Cross Society mobilsed to support their communities.

💬 “When we spend time with the children and take part in volunteer activities, we feel happier and stronger. We would rather be out volunteering than staying at home. Even if only for a moment, it helps us forget some of the pain and losses brought by the floods. Having gone through the disaster ourselves, we know what it feels like to lose so much, and we understand the grief that affected families are carrying. This is why we want to be there for others, offering support, understanding, and hope during their recovery,” says two young volunteer survivors of the Nepal floods.

Thanks for the testimonies and important work on mental health and support for flood survivors in Nepal to our colleagues in the Danish Red Cross in Nepal and the Asia Pacific MHPSS Collaborative.
