  • TAPPING the POTENTIAL of YOUTH Hope That All Those Who Attended Benefited from the Opportunity to Practise the Knowledge They Acquired During the Conference
    THE REACH OUT TO ASIA QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER, ISSUE 7, JUNE 2016 EMPOWERING YOUTH GLOBALLY OTA has always placed great importance on youth – be it the empowerment of R Qatari youngsters, or those in distant regions. ROTA’s aim is to reach out to youth in disadvantaged communities around the world, and provide them with academic support, technological assistance, and skills for self- employment. ROTA has been collaborating with several like- minded sponsors and partners to achieve these goals. Our Yemen initiative, a joint effort with CARE International and Silatech, is improving economic opportunities for hundreds of youth. Our collaboration with Mercy Corps in the West Bank in a project called Supporting Palestinian Education and Employment Development will increase job opportunities for Palestinian youth. In Tunisia, we work with Islamic Relief-Tunisia to improve the quality of education through capacity building of schools and libraries. Primary and vocational schools are also being built in Cambodia, thanks to our collaboration with the Monithapana Foundation. ROTA’s work doesn’t stop there. As part of our ongoing efforts to provide underprivileged youth in Asia with education, a group of Qatar University students was recently sent to Indonesia to help expand the skills of local students there. An initiative in Nepal, called Not Your Average Spring Break, saw university students visit western Nepal to provide opportunities through workshops. Trips like these are also beneficial to ROTA volunteers who develop their own life skills through volunteering. ROTA’s Youth Service Clubs are also aiding the development of leadership skills and an understanding of international and community building issues.

  • Thousands of Families Descend Upon Education City for Superb Night of Qatar Foundation Garangao Celebrations
    THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES DESCEND UPON EDUCATION CITY FOR SUPERB NIGHT OF QATAR FOUNDATION GARANGAO CELEBRATIONS Qatar Foundation Showcases Best Of Qatari Culture At Its 2015 Garangao Night Festival Doha, Qatar, 30 June 2015: Around 4,000 members of the local community were transported back in time by Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development (QF), during its annual Garangao night festivities held on Monday evening at the Al Shaqab Equestrian Centre in Doha. During a fun-filled evening that celebrated youth and the richness of Qatari culture, hundreds of families delighted in a wide range of free community activities – including traditional Arabic games for children, arts and crafts, pony rides and unique storytelling sessions. Deeply rooted in Gulf culture, Garangao is an annual festival that takes place during the Holy Month of Ramadan. It first began as a daytime festival within tribal communities as both a reward and a distraction for children during fasting hours. In more recent years, however, it has evolved into a night-time event, where children are provided with sweets, gifts and the chance to participate in team games and other much-loved pastimes. As part of its commitment to preserving the nation’s heritage, QF looks to uphold such traditions by providing a year-round calendar of cultural activities for the whole community to enjoy. Through hosting such events, the organisation hopes to showcase the best of the nation’s culture and traditions to both local and expatriate families The latest event provided an invaluable opportunity for all of QF’s various entities to work in tandem, share ideas and together, deliver a truly memorable night of celebrations that the organisation can be proud of.
