Qatar Chamber underlines sustainability core pillar for building more diversified, efficient economy

Qatar Chamber has emphasized that sustainability is a fundamental pillar in establishing a more diverse and efficient economy, aligning with the goals of Qatar National Vision 2030. During a seminar hosted as part of Qatar Sustainability Week, Acting General Manager Ali Bu Sherbak Al Mansori highlighted the Chamber's commitment to sustainability, viewing it as a crucial component of its social and institutional duties.

He stressed that institutions should contribute to community development, environmental preservation, and responsible business practices, rather than solely focusing on economic returns.

Al Mansori underscored the private sector's pivotal role in achieving sustainability, advocating for responsible practices, efficient resource use, investment in human capital, and improved governance. The Chamber actively promotes sustainability through educational initiatives, awareness campaigns, and the adoption of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles across businesses.

Representatives from the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, Qatar University, and the Regional Network for Social Responsibility provided insights into their respective roles in fostering sustainability. They discussed the importance of environmental stewardship, economic efficiency, and the integration of sustainability into strategic planning. The seminar also explored the economic benefits of sustainability and its alignment with international standards, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
