Henri Dunant was the first-ever recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, awarded in 1901 for his efforts to establish the International Red Cross. Dunant’s inspiration for the organization came after witnessing the aftermath of the Battle of Solferino in 1859, where thousands of soldiers were left wounded and unattended. His compassion led to the founding of the Red Cross, which aimed to provide neutral humanitarian aid during conflicts.
Dunant’s work laid the foundation for the Geneva Conventions, which established international laws for the treatment of wounded soldiers and prisoners of war. His dedication to alleviating human suffering during wartime marked a pioneering step in the field of humanitarian work, and his legacy continues through the Red Cross’s global influence in conflict zones today.
