Watch the highlights from Social Progress
A nation’s progress is measured not only by its economic growth and infrastructure, but also by its cultural and social development. Social progress at Qatar Foundation (QF) champions programs and initiatives that reinforce Qatar’s values-based society: deeply rooted in cultural heritage and identity, while advancing inclusion, ethics, and social cohesion.
In 2025, our key areas of achievement in social progress included cultural and linguistic preservation and representation - safeguarding Arabic language and culture as pillars of identity and heritage, while promoting them as powerful engines of creativity, innovation, and cultural diplomacy; nurturing children and youth to grow into active, values-driven citizens, while shaping national policies that strengthen family wellbeing and long-term social development; and inclusivity and global leadership to advance support for diverse needs and abilities, fostering greater social cohesion across communities.
