  • Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar
    Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar Rehenuma Asmi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy under the executive committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Rehenuma Asmi All rights reserved ABSTRACT Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam Rehenuma Asmi My study explores language ideologies in the capital city of Doha, Qatar, where school reform movements are placing greater emphasis on English language acquisition. Through ethnography and a revised theory of language ideologies, I argue that as languages come in greater contact in multi-lingual spaces, mediation must occur between the new and old relationships that are emerging as a result of population growth, policy changes and cross-cultural interactions. I interrogate the development concept of the “knowledge economy” as it is used to justify old and new language ideologies regarding Arabic and English. As Qataris change their education systems in response to the economic development framework of the “knowledge economy,” they are promoting language ideologies that designate English as useful for the economy and “global” citizenship and Qatari Arabic and Standard Arabic as useful for religious and cultural reasons. I argue that Standard English, through its association with the “knowledge economy,” becomes “de-localized” and branded an “international” language. This ideology presents English as a modern language free of the society in which it is embedded, to circulate around the globe. In contrast, Standard Arabic is represented as stiff, archaic language of religious traditions and Qatari Arabic is presented as the language of oral culture and ethnonationalism.

The collection based on two libraries the Doha Public Library of 1956, and the Endowment Library, from 1954. The opening collection consisted of 30.000 volumes. (Khalifa, 1992) In the beginning Dar-Al-Kutub, was responsible for school and public libraries for the first 10 years, later these functions changed to public library and national library functions. (Khalifa, 1992). The first Qatar National Bibliography was published in 1970. (Al Nassr, 1993). But only in 1982, the legal deposit law by Emir Decree No. 14 was issued, and more national library functions developed: the collection of publications from Qataris published abroad and the ISBN-Agency of Qatar in 1994. From 1972 onwards the Qatar National Library organized the Qatar Book Fair, an important cultural event for the country and the region. Over the years the national library has served its users with a wide range of collection and activities. Between 1978 and 1985 the branches developed and their libraries filled up with Arab and English books. The Women’s library, with a collection of more than 60.000 volumes introduced educational computer games for Kids and internet in a modern office building, which was changed to become a library. They developed a set of activities with handicapped students from different schools and their new knowledge management is a good example to other public library branches after their facilities are renovated and modernized.

  • Bombardier Test Project Involves Induction Technology Page 1 of 3
    Bombardier test project involves induction technology Page 1 of 3 Bombardier test project involves induction technology BY FRANÇOIS SHALOM, THE GAZETTE JANUARY 10, 2013 An artist’s conception of Bombardier’s new electric bus which has its battery recharged through a capacitor under bus stops. MONTREAL — There’s no budget, no timeline, no proven technology, much less shovels in the ground or even a signed contract. But it’s substantially more than an idle dream. Montreal’s Île-Ste-Hélène is scheduled to be the North American test site this year for Bombardier Inc.’s Primove pilot project, a technology that is being tested at four sites in Germany, where the firm’s rail division is based. Primove’s mandate is to develop electric mass-transit propulsion systems, but not the vehicles themselves. Intended to bypass the conventional notion of electric buses and trolley buses powered by cumbersome batteries, Primove rests on an inductive transfer of power from ground-based electrical power sources to very small batteries placed under, not in, the bus. Sensors on the vehicles would store the energy emitted by the electro-magnetic field, but only in small quantities, feeding the bus or trolley sufficiently to reach the next power source a short distance away. The system can charge while the vehicle is in motion or at rest. http://www.montrealgazette.com/story_print.html?id=7803624&sponsor= 2/28/2013 Bombardier test project involves induction technology Page 2 of 3 “You bury power stations capable of charging rapidly, even instantly — we’re talking seconds — so that you don’t need to resort to (lengthier) conventional power boost systems currently on the market” like hybrid and electric vehicles, said Bombardier Transportation spokesperson Marc Laforge.

  • The Case of Katara Cultural Village in Qatar
    Architecture Research 2017, 7(4): 109-122 DOI: 10.5923/j.arch.20170704.01 The Role of Public Art and Culture in New Urban Environments: The Case of Katara Cultural Village in Qatar Maryam Al Suwaidi1, Raffaello Furlan2,* 1Candidate in the Master Program in Urban Planning and Design (MUPD) at Qatar University, State of Qatar 2College of Engineering, Department of Architecture and Urban Planning (DAUP), Qatar University, State of Qatar Abstract In recent years, public art has been featured as a trend in urban environments in GCC. During its period of development, the State of Qatar worked on large megaprojects designed to attract global investments and tourists. Also, the current process of globalization has greatly contributed to increasing competition between cities and promoting the development of public art within new urban developments. This research study discusses the role of public art in influencing urban environments in Qatar, namely within Katara Cultural Village. The study explores the extent to which such an approach can raise local communities’ environmental awareness as an indirect input to the process of upgrading the desires of those living in these areas and of international tourists. In addition, it reviews the experiences of different types of catalysts for regeneration, such as art and culture, that can enhance the built environment’s recognition, value, and economic growth. A qualitative evaluation is employed for this research study, which leverages subjective methods such as interviews and observations to collect substantive and relevant data while examining the interaction of connectivity, attraction, and development as they relate to economics and other multifaceted aspects of development.

  • An Urban Regeneration Planning Scheme for the Souq Waqif Heritage Site of Doha
    sustainability Article An Urban Regeneration Planning Scheme for the Souq Waqif Heritage Site of Doha Raffaello Furlan * and Asmaa AL-Mohannadi Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Qatar University, Doha 3263, Qatar; [email protected] * Correspondence: raff[email protected] Received: 21 July 2020; Accepted: 18 September 2020; Published: 24 September 2020 Abstract: Over the past decade, transit-oriented development (TOD) has been advocated as an applicable urban regeneration planning model to promote the sustainability of cities along with city dwellers’ standards of urban living. On a regional scale, under the directives of the Qatar National Vision 2030 (QNV-2030), the Qatar National Development Framework (QNDF-2032), and the strategies for planned mega events, such as the FIFA World Cup 2022, the State of Qatar launched the construction of the Doha Metro, which consists of four lines. This transport system, linking the center of Doha to several transit villages around approximately 100 metro stations, aims at reducing the number of vehicles on the road networks while providing an integrated transportation and land use strategy through the urban regeneration of transit-oriented developments (TODs), providing both social and environmental economic benefits. Among the most significant transit sites within the Doha Metro lines is the Souq Waqif station. This station is a historical–heritage spot that represents a potential socio-cultural site for the creation of a distinctive urban environment. This research study investigates an approach suitable for an urban regeneration planning scheme for the Souq Waqif TOD, aiming at (i) preserving and consolidating the deeply rooted cultural heritage of the historical site and (ii) enhancing the city dwellers’ and/or the community’s standards of urban living.

This project is introduced and sponsored by ASHRAE Annual Student Design Project Competition. Therefore, to meet the requirements of high energy performance buildings, ASHRAE standards have been used as a guideline throughout the entire design development phases of the project for example, ASHRAE 189.1-2014. The Education City in Qatar has been selected as the potential location for the project since it is considered a sustainable developing educational district that embraces international universities, K-12 schools, and research centers. The project design process started with collecting information about the general climatic conditions of Doha, Qatar using Climate Consultant 6.0 software, using Abu Dhabi as the closest proxy site. Based on charts and annual collected data, Doha, Qatar is categorized under Zone 1 based on ASHRAE criteria of hot and humid climates.
