On , we honor the extraordinary frontline heroes delivering life-saving health and protection services in the world’s most severe crises.

Even during complex health emergencies and conflict, critical needs do not stop: women continue to give birth, the risk of gender-based violence (GBV) escalates, and access to routine care drops sharply.

To keep life-saving services running, frontline workers must be protected with adapted safety equipment, mental health support, and secure access to affected communities.

Protecting humanitarian workers isn't optional, it’s the non-negotiable foundation of every emergency response.
