DOHA: Qatar has launched a series of initiatives and legislative measures aimed at strengthening a culture of social responsibility, both within the country and internationally, according to Nasser Al-Mughaisib, Director of the Social Development Department at the Ministry of Social Development and Family.

“Social responsibility, as promoted by Qatar, has left a clear and tangible mark both inside and outside the country. Thanks to the wise leadership of H H the Amir, we have been able to establish high standards and raise expectations for others in this field,” Al-Mughaisib stated.

Speaking to Qatar TV recently, he highlighted the role of national frameworks such as Qatar National Vision 2030 and the Third National Development Strategy, describing them as guiding tools for fostering a cohesive and responsible society. “Our goal is to ensure that society embodies accountability in community service, aligning with the strategic objectives we have been pursuing for over a decade,” he added.

Over the past two years, he said, the Ministry has introduced a range of initiatives and legal frameworks to organize community work in Qatar. Among these is legislation regulating work related to persons with disabilities, emphasizing their active participation in social responsibility. “This is not only about supporting people of determination but also enabling them to contribute meaningfully to society."

“Their involvement is a source of pride and demonstrates a model of inclusive civic engagement,” Al-Mughaisib explained. He further emphasized the active role of ministries and institutions across Qatar.
