Qatar sport for social development initiatives

Overview

International leaders and organizations recently convened at Wilton Park, in partnership with the Qatar Foundation, for a dialogue focused on ‘Sport for Development in the Global South: Advancing Female Empowerment, Inclusion, and Accessibility’. The discussions aimed to create a global coalition to address structural barriers for women and girls, building upon UN Resolution 59/17.

Following these high-level discussions, Qatar has implemented community-level sporting initiatives. The Qatar Foundation and ORYX GTL have reintroduced ‘Ladies Sport Night’ at Oxygen Park, providing fitness classes and tournaments for women and girls. Additionally, the Qatar Sports For All Federation is collaborating with Paris Saint-Germain to host the ‘We Run Doha’ race at the Lusail International Circuit.
