Fighting for the safety of women and children.

‣ Not just in Syria and other conflicts today but in ancient history the Israelite, Persian, Greek and Roman armies reportedly engaged in war rape. From time immemorial, rape has been regarded as spoils of war. Now it will be considered a war crime. We want to send out a strong message that rape is no longer a trophy of war but a serious war crime. ~ The RINJ Foundation

The RINJ Foundation
RINJ Women operates 100% on funds from private funders to ensure RINJ

• freedom to offer humanitarian assistance when & where needed; &
• maintain RINJ Women independence from political, religious & economic influence.

RINJ Women volunteers provide assistance to women and children in distress, to survivors of natural or man-made disasters & to victims of armed conflict. RINJ Women fills its role regardless of race, religion, creed or political convictions.

• RINJ Women volunteers observe neutrality and impartiality in the name of universal medical ethics; the rule of law; and the universal right to humanitarian assistance.
• RINJ Women claim full & unfettered freedom in the exercise of its functions.
• RINJ Women volunteer/members undertake to respect professional codes of ethical standards & maintain independence from political, economic or religious powers.
• RINJ Women volunteers/members understand the risks and dangers of the missions they carry out and make no claim for themselves or their assigns for any form of compensation other than that which The RINJ Foundation might be able to afford them.
• Impartiality & neutrality are not equal to silence. When RINJ Women workers witness extreme acts of violence against individuals or groups, the organisation may speak out publicly. RINJ Women may seek to bring attention to extreme need and unacceptable suffering when access to justice or lifesaving medical care is impeded, when medical facilities come under threat, when crises like rape for the purpose of genocide are neglected, or when the provision of aid is inadequate or abused.
