Ammon News - His Majesty King Abdullah II, on Wednesday, visited the Jordanian Restoring Hope Society booth at the 3rd Global Disability Summit in Berlin.

The Restoring Hope initiative, launched last year under Royal directives, aims to address the urgent needs of amputees in Gaza, where thousands of people of all ages are living with limb loss.

So far, over 415 individuals, including children, have been fitted with prosthetic limbs using cutting-edge technology that enables the fitting of prosthetics within hours, compared to the traditional months-long process.

This initiative is a collaboration among several organizations, including the Royal Medical Services, the "Hakeem Programme" by Electronic Health Solutions, and the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation.

His Majesty was briefed by the team on the plans to expand the initiative, forge partnerships with multiple countries, and enhance the skills of specialists, especially after the initiative was restructured as a non-profit organization called the Restoring Hope Society.

The King also visited the Higher Council for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities' booth at the summit, where he was updated on the council's efforts to advance the rights and integration of persons with disabilities in Jordan, as well as its role in co-organizing the summit on behalf of Jordan.

Accompanied by His Highness Prince Mired bin Ra'ad, Chief Royal Councillor and President of the Higher Council for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, His Majesty also visited the Assistive Technology Exhibition, which showcased the latest innovations in prosthetics and hearing aids.
