Description :
Roger Bimael est un garçon de 17 ans qui a été séparé de sa famille et que sa mère pensait mort. Il a retrouvé ses proches grâce au CICR.
Le respect de l'unité familiale est implicite dans l'idée de respect de la dignité humaine. Chaque année, le CICR et les Sociétés nationales de la Croix-Rouge et du Croissant-Rouge aident des centaines de milliers de personnes (personnes déplacées, réfugiés, détenus et personnes portées disparues) à renouer des liens avec leur famille ou à découvrir le sort de leurs proches disparus.
