The Saudi Red Crescent Authority (SRCA) team has won the First Aid World Cup 2026, held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from August 24 to 26, 2026.
The tournament was organized by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and the DIHAD Sustainable Organisation, with teams from national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies around the world.
SRCA placed first in the Public Awareness Track, second in the Innovation Track and third in the Response Track, a result that reflects the skill of Saudi personnel in first aid and community awareness and the progress of the authority's emergency medical and humanitarian capabilities.
The authority said taking part helps it exchange expertise, learn from international first aid experience and develop its staff, improving its training and awareness programs and strengthening community readiness for emergencies.
