A wide shot of a conference stage set for the Global Caregiver Forum 2026. A large blue screen at the back displays the text “Global Caregiver Forum 2026, January 15-16, Madrid,” alongside the UNICEF and WHO logos. The screen also shows an image of a smiling woman lifting a baby. On the stage below are several yellow chairs arranged in a row with small tables, set up for a panel discussion

Imagine a world where parents & carers are given the support they need & imagine that support being delivered at scale

That is what we aspire to & it was also the shared feeling in the room yesterday at the #GlobalCaregiverForum, organised by the WHO, UNICEF & the Government of Spain

Our Development Director, Ruth Patil, is in #Madrid right now for the #GlobalCaregiverForum, joining practitioners, academics & policymakers from across the world to talk about what #caregivers & especially from our perspective, #ParentCarers of disabled children really need.
