On February 26, 2026, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle continued their humanitarian tour of Jordan, engaging in a series of visits focused on health and community development. The Duke and Duchess began their day at World Central Kitchen, a partner of their Archewell Philanthropies. They later joined a World Health Organization delegation to visit the National Centre for Rehabilitation of Addicts, a facility offering residential and outpatient treatment services under Jordan's Ministry of Health.
Further engagements included a meeting with female leaders at the Jordanian Hashemite Fund for Human Development, an NGO chaired since 1977 by Princess Basma Bint Talal, focusing on sustainable development and women's empowerment. This visit aligns with Meghan Markle's longstanding dedication to gender equity and community leadership.
The couple's two-day trip, starting February 25, 2026, involved collaborations with WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. Their itinerary centered on humanitarian health response, mental health, and aid for conflict-affected populations, building upon their prior work with the WHO, including a vaccine equity campaign during the COVID pandemic and a visit to Imperial College London's Centre for Blast Injury Studies in September 2025. Previous outings included a WHO roundtable, a tour of Za'atari Refugee Camp, and a visit to Amman's Specialty Hospital to meet evacuees from Gaza.
