    Remembering the ICRC Delegate who saved Jewish children during WWII

    On 8 May, the ICRC took part in the inauguration ceremony of a commemoration park that Budapest city authorities dedicated to three people credited with saving thousands of Jewish lives during the WWII. Friedrich Born, ICRC’s delegate in Budapest was honoured for his work between May 1944 and March 1945, together with Raoul Wallenberg and Gàbor Sztehlo, for saving more than 7.000 children. 

    For his work, Friedrich Born was recognized as Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Washem, Israel’s Holocaust memorial authority, in 1987.
