ESTUDIO DE CASOS, COMPARATIVA DE CRUZ ROJA EN ÁMBITO RURAL (ÉCIJA) Y URBANO (SEVILLA).

Abstract

In this case study, we will outline the history and principles of “Cruz Roja”, as well as its work and the differences in the performance of its functions in Spain, specifically in the rural and urban areas of Ecija and Seville. Cruz Roja, both in rural and urban areas, focuses on helping people in situations of vulnerability and social exclusion, and has implemented several projects to help these people find employment and improve their quality of life. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected its operations, but the organisation has worked hard to provide urgent assistance to vulnerable people. The study also discusses the challenges faced by social workers and educators workers in each institution who worked with vulnerable populations during the pandemic. In short, in this case study, we will mainly look at the differences in the functioning ofrural and urban Red Cross organisations. We will also show the performance of each of the organisations and will discuss both the influence of Covid19 and the possible factors that may influence the differences between the two institutions.
