Everyone counts, May 2019 issue

The Everyone Counts report is a flagship publication of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). It is based mainly on data collected through the Federation-wide databank and reporting system (FDRS).

In this chapter, we introduce the FDRS. We look at what kinds of data are included in it and how to access and analyse it. We present some headline data like: how many people across the world were reached with health programming in 2017 by National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies? (p. 25) and report some recent successes and problems. In Chapter 2 we give an overview of achievements on the main FDRS indicators like numbers of people reached.
