Qatar aspires to establish a world-class educational system, providing top-tier education to its students. This ambitious goal requires innovative approaches and fresh ideas that empower individuals to shape their future. This webinar introduces the Spotlight on Qatar 2025 to people interested in submitting to the Spotlight and reviewing the innovations, and it also extends a warm welcome to anyone interested in the topic.
