22 AUGUST 2014 Today, as we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the original Geneva Convention, we call on all parties to all conflicts to preserve what it means to be human, by complying with international humanitarian law. You can help us spread the word by sharing this video on your web and social media platforms. The pdf of the original Geneva Convention signed in 1864 is also available on scribd and on icrc.org. You can download it, share it or embed it on your own platforms. A photo gallery retracing 150 years of IHL can also be shared on social media. We count on you to help us take advantage of this anniversary to convey our IHL messages as broadly as possible! Best regards, ICRC Law & Policy
