UAE to host global polio-eradication fundraiser
LONDON: The UAE is to host a major donor event later this year to raise money for the eradication of polio. The global conference run by the Mohamed bin Zayed Foundation for Humanity in Abu Dhabi will seek to build pledges of investment in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. The announcement on Friday coincides with World Polio Day to raise awareness about the disease, which 30 years ago paralyzed 1,000 children a day across 125 countries. Since then, the GPEI led a vast international vaccination effort that almost wiped out the disease in 2023.
