Death of Jeanne Egger: emblematic figure of the ICRC
Jeanne Egger – the ICRC’s first female delegate after the Second World War – passed away in September 2023. “I found it hard to live without a commitment to work or to a person you want to help.” With these few words, Jeanne Egger encapsulated an entire life, her own, dedicated to the service of others.
