Prince Harry and Meghan Sussex conducted a two-day humanitarian visit to Jordan beginning February 25, 2026, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) to focus on global health, mental health, and aid.
They attended a discussion in Amman with WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus and UN representatives, visited the Za'atari Refugee Camp to meet with the NGO Questscope and participate in activities with children, met medical evacuees from Gaza Amman’s Specialty Hospital, following a $200,000 Archewell donation to the WHO for these evacuations, visited World Central Kitchen regional headquarters to observe aid efforts, and visited the National Centre for Rehabilitation of Addicts, engaging with patients and offering support.

The pair were described as visibly moved by the Independent (empathy is a trait we need to see modeled more in famous people):
On their website Sussex.com, they detailed the quiet heroism of healthcare workers, the “lifesaving importance of coordinated international action” and the importance of dignity and nurturing potential.
Archewell Philanthropies has supported partners facilitating medical evacuations for children affected by the conflict in Gaza, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) and frontline health providers. Seeing this work up close brought into sharp focus the life-saving importance of coordinated international action and the quiet heroism of healthcare workers who show up every day for patients navigating unimaginable grief, trauma and loss.
Across every visit, a shared truth emerged: humanitarian response is not only about delivering services – it is about restoring dignity, nurturing potential, and standing with communities over the long term. From WHO’s coordination of regional health response, to youth centres fostering creativity in displacement, to hospitals caring for evacuated children, Jordan’s partners are showing what sustained, compassionate response can look like when the world chooses to act together.
Impact matters. The British Ambassador to Jordan, Philip Hall, thanked the Sussexes for their tour, saying, “Your visit, your support, your appreciation of the efforts that the United Nations, including of course the World Health Organization, the government of Jordan and others are making here is enormously appreciated. So thank you for coming.”
Wherever they go, wild attention follows. They are using that attention for good.
