Doha: Qatar Museums (QM) yesterday signed a pact with Al Jazeera Documentary Channel, part of the Al Jazeera Media Network, with the objective of promoting cultural and media cooperation.

The agreement was co-signed by Chief Executive Officer of QM Mohammed Saad Al Rumaihi and Director of Al Jazeera Documentary Channel Ahmed Mahfouz. This five-year agreement, starting from 2025, is a consequential step to reinforce cultural and media cooperation between the two leading institutions. 

It intends to support the production and showcasing of documentary films in connection with the QM-produced cultural years, something that nurtures the content and enhances the cultural experience for the community, Al Rumaihi said.

He further indicated that the key initiatives of this pact include sharing the documentary content between the two institutions, something that will enhance the content showcased on all platforms, in addition to making all QM’s exhibition halls available for screening documentary films from the Al Jazeera Media Network, thereby providing visitors with a rich cultural experience.

Since its inception, QM has believed in the interoperability of both documentary media and culture that operate in unison for the service of society, offering experiences that spotlight values in innovation, cooperation, and inclusivity, by promoting national identity and building a tight-knit knowledge-based community.
