Non-neutral humanitarian action --- Thanks Teresa. I agree with this point and it's not new. As he says in this article, it was recognised 30 years ago while the Code of Conduct was being drafted that neutrality did not have to be an ingredient in all humanitarian action. That's also why we in this course give quite a bit of prominence to Pictet's pyramid, which itself predates the Code by about 30 years.
