In Doha, Qatar, Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al Thani, Chairman of the Qatar Chamber, emphasized the Chamber's dedication to empowering persons with disabilities in the labor market. This commitment is crucial for Qatar's inclusive and sustainable development, particularly as the nation prepares to host the Fourth Global Disability Summit in 2028.
Sheikh Khalifa praised Qatar's ongoing efforts to advance the rights of individuals with disabilities, promote their inclusion, and empower them across various societal aspects. He highlighted that hosting the 2028 Summit underscores Qatar's commitment to equal opportunities and its role as a leading global partner in human development.
