According to the Strategy for the Development of National Societies in the Eighties, adopted at the International Conference of the Red Cross in Manila in 1981, development is “the process of strengthening the capacity of National Societies to provide Red Cross services based on national resources. It is thus concerned with both the development of National Societies' operational structures and with the development of the services they provide.”
1 See Development: Utopia or Reality ? — League Priorities, submitted by the Danish Red Cross to the League General Assembly in Rio de Janeiro in November 1987, in which it is pointed out that structural development and development of services are so closely interrelated that they cannot be regarded as separate issues.
