The Waterfalls Global Award is a global initiative launched to enhance the capabilities of medical professionals around the world and honours health organisations and individuals who faced frontline adversities during their humanitarian missions.

His Highness congratulated the winners of the award, including frontline doctors, nurses, the families of those who sacrificed their lives while fulfilling humanitarian tasks, and the award's staff.
