The award recognises Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed's decades-long humanitarian work as well as his recent announcement of the creation of the Zayed Humanitarian Legacy Initiative that will allocate AED 20 billion for humanitarian causes in the world's most vulnerable regions. Created on the 20 anniversary of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan's passing and on Zayed Humanitarian Day, this major initiative will aim to greatly improve the quality of life and sustainable development for vulnerable communities around the world, underscoring Sheikh Zayed's legacy of generosity and support.
In addition, under Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed's leadership, the UAE has supported numerous other humanitarian causes over the years, including the global distribution of billions of doses of COVID-19 vaccines to countries in need through its "Hope Consortium" initiative. In the region, His Highness has been instrumental in supporting refugees and providing medical aid to those affected by conflict, including in Syria and Yemen , to which the UAE has donated over USD 6 billion since 2015.
