About us
In 2008, Her Highness Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser founded Best Buddies Qatar under the Shafallah Center for Persons with Disabilities, aiming to integrate individuals with mild to moderate intellectual and developmental disabilities into Qatari society. The organization offers diverse programs, including social awareness initiatives and educational and vocational support. These encompass school integration programs catering to different age groups, college inclusion initiatives, employment support, and modern communication platforms fostering friendships. Additionally, specialized programs like the Ambassador and Promoter programs aim at advocacy and awareness-raising, while the Social Sports Integration Program enhances social interaction through sports activities. Best Buddies Qatar endeavors to provide a nurturing environment that fosters the social, cultural, and professional growth of individuals with disabilities in Qatar.
