International Federation of Green Crescent
International Federation of Green Crescent Website: ifgc.org
The International Federation of Green Crescent (IFGC) is an umbrella organization uniting 70 Country Green Crescents. Its primary goal is to foster global partnerships and collaborative efforts to advance addiction prevention worldwide.
Established on November 7, 2016, in Istanbul, the International Federation of Green Crescent (IFGC) was founded through the collaboration of 30 Green Crescent societies from around the world, united by a shared vision of promoting healthy, resilient, and addiction-free communities globally.
The IFGC brings together independent Country Green Crescent organizations under a common platform to foster international solidarity, build institutional capacity, and develop effective strategies against a wide range of addictions—including tobacco, alcohol, drugs, technology, and gambling—tailored to the specific needs and cultural contexts of each country.
Today, members of the IFGC are actively operating in 70 countries across five continents, with the Federation continuing to expand its network as new Country Green Crescents are established. Each member operates as an independent, locally registered organization committed to the IFGC’s core principles and goals.
In addition to strengthening national efforts, the IFGC promotes global collaboration by encouraging the active participation of its members in international forums, including those organized by the United Nations and other global institutions.
With its growing network and strong commitment to public health and prevention, the IFGC continues to play a key role in shaping global addiction policy, advocacy, and community resilience.
