Harry and Meghan Accept Project Healthy Minds’ Humanitarians of the Year in New York

The honor highlights their campaign on children’s online safety, including a new tie-up between Archewell’s Parents’ Network and ParentsTogether.

Overview

  • Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a rare joint red-carpet appearance on Oct. 9 at Spring Studios in New York, where they received Project Healthy Minds’ Humanitarians of the Year award.
  • From the stage, Harry urged action on tech accountability, citing about 4,000 families represented by the Social Media Victims Law Centre and warning about harms tied to unregulated AI.
  • Meghan spoke as a parent about preparing for their children, Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, to face social media, calling the separation of benefits from risks increasingly impossible.
  • Archewell’s Parents’ Network announced a formal partnership with ParentsTogether, the couple’s foundation co-produced festival conversations, and the Lost Screen Memorial was displayed during the event.
  • Coverage also noted criticism from royal commentators over the honor and reported a developing dispute after Chad’s environment minister accused African Parks, a charity linked to Harry, of misconduct.
