As the designated host for this year’s commemoration, QM reaffirmed its commitment to fostering global dialogue on population issues, echoing the priorities set by the United Nations.
World Population Day serves as a vital platform to raise awareness about global population challenges and advocate for sustainable solutions. This year’s event brought together representatives from governmental bodies, international organisations, non-governmental organisations, and academia to discuss strategies and initiatives aimed at advancing population-related agendas.
Abdullatif al-Jasmi, director of Cultural Heritage Protection at QM, emphasised the significance of hosting World Population Day, saying: “Qatar Museums is honoured to host World Population Day this year, highlighting our commitment to safeguarding our cultural heritage and promoting its understanding and appreciation. By transforming expert research into engaging narratives, we aim to make Qatar's rich history accessible and relevant to all visitors. Our efforts preserve these sites and inspire a sense of ownership, pride, and responsibility among communities, ensuring their protection for future generations.”
With a belief in creating value through invention, QM animates everything it does with an authentic connection to Qatar and its heritage, a steadfast commitment to inclusivity and accessibility.
