福島県支部では、これまでも「国際理解・親善」を深めるための具体的事業として、県内の青少年赤十字（JRC）加盟校のメンバーを海外の赤十字加盟国へ派遣してきました。震災後は、県内のJRC加盟校の他に被災高校の生徒からも参加を募り、被害の実態を海外に伝えるとともに数多くの支援を受けたことへの感謝も伝えながら、現地の青少年との交流を図っています。2013年のフィリピン訪問の報告書を紹介しています。
Even until the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami occurred, the Fukushima Chapter had sent students of the Junior Red Cross member schools in Fukushima Prefecture to countries of Red Cross Societies to promote “international understanding and friendship” which is part of the Junior Red Cross goals. After the disaster, the Fukushima Chapter has called for participation in the program from not only the Junior Red Cross schools but also non-member high schools within Fukushima Prefecture. Participant students have conveyed the damage caused by the disaster in the countries where they visited and also expressed their gratitude for support they received after the disaster while interacting with the local youth. The Summary report of the visit to Philippine in 2013 is posted.
