LAHORE: ChildLife Foundation has achieved another recognition by becoming one of the three finalists in the health category at the COP28.

The COP28 is the 28th United Nations Climate Change conference, being held from Nov 30 until Dec 12, 2023, at the Expo City, Dubai.

At the conference, the Zayed Sustainability Prize was announced out of more than 5,000 applicants.

ChildLife Foundation was one of the three finalists in the health category due to its contribution in improving children’s emergency care through the Emergency Rooms and Telemedicine network at 200 hospitals in partnership with the government.

“Climate change leads to floods and droughts that impact children disproportionately,” said Chief Executive of ChildLife Foundation Dr. Ahson Rabbani.
