‘Right to development key to Qatar’s national policies’

The State of Qatar asserts that the right to development is a fundamental human right, with its recognition enshrined in the Declaration on the Right to Development adopted in 1986. Four decades later, Qatar maintains that its principles and standards remain pivotal in addressing contemporary global challenges, as outlined in a recent statement by Deputy Permanent Representative Abdulrahman Mohammed Fakhroo.

During a panel discussion marking the 40th anniversary of the declaration's adoption, Fakhroo emphasized the ongoing importance of the right to development within the framework of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. He stressed that promoting this right should remain a priority for both international and national agendas, considering Qatar's obligations under international human rights instruments.

Qatar's ambitious national vision, encapsulated in the Qatar National Vision 2030, has driven significant national achievements and steady progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals. The nation continues to lead in various international and regional development indicators.
