INTRODUCTION: The present study was conducted in order to compare the organizational indicators of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) with other National Societies. To this end, the number of volunteers, income and costs of the IRCS were compared with other National Societies in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Central Asia, and Middle East & North Africa (MENA).
METHODS: In this descriptive-comparative study, data were collected from the data bank and online reporting system of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). Finally, data were analyzed in Excel- 2016 and SPSS -24 software.
FINDINGS: Based on the findings, from 2016 to 2020, compared to other National Societies, the average of IRCS volunteers has always been higher. The income of the IRCS is higher compared to that of National Societies in Africa, Asia, the Pacific, and MENA and lower compared to the National Societies in America, Europe, and Central Asia. In terms of cost, IRCS incurred higher costs than African and MENA National Societies and lower costs compared to National Societies of America, Asia and the Pacific, Europe, and Central Asia.
CONCLUSION: According to the results, it can be concluded that although the income and costs of the IRCS are lower compared to most of the National Societies, the number of volunteers is more, which shows the human capital of IRCS and is necessary to use this potential appropriately.
