Charting economic and social progress in modern societies

depends on a clear vision and a strategy about how to get

there. Wise political leaders know the direction in which theywould like their societies to develop, balancing the interests

o present and uture generations.

Qatar National Vision 2030 builds a bridge between the

present and the uture. It envisages a vibrant and prosperous

country in which there is economic and social justice or all,

and in which nature and man are in harmony. We need to

galvanize our collective energies and direct them toward theseaspirations. Strong Islamic and amily values will provide our

moral and ethical compass.

The welare o our children, and o our children yet to be born,

demands that we use our resource-wealth wisely. Qatar must

continue to invest in its people so that all can participate ully

in economic, social and political lie. Qatar must invest too

in world class inrastructure to create a dynamic and morediversiied economy in which the private sector plays a

prominent role. This requires continuous improvements

in the eiciency, transparency and accountability o

government agencies.

Qatar’s National Vision is authentic. It has emerged rom

intensive consultation across Qatari society. It is based on

the guiding principles o Qatar’s Permanent Constitution. Itreects the aspirations o the Qatari people and the resolve o

their political leadership.



Qatar’s National Vision belongs to the government, the private

sector, civil society and to all Qatari citizens. I call on all to

work hard and utilize your expertise to help achieve the goalso the Vision and to advance our nation’s development. In this

way, we will build a bright uture or the people o Qatar.

Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani

Doha

July 2008



T he State o Qatar is enjoying a

period o unparalleled prosperity,

with exceptional economic progress being

evident in the increasing standard o living

o its people. Major advances in economic, human and social

developments continue to occur. Qatar has also progressedpolitically. Qatar’s Permanent Constitution was ratied in 2004

and came into eect in June 2005. The Constitution denes the

roles o the three state powers and the rights and duties o

Qatari citizens.

Despite rapid economic and social gains, as well as political

change, Qatar has maintained its cultural and traditional values

as an Arab and Islamic nation that considers the amily to be

the main pillar o society. Under the wise leadership o HH the

Emir, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalia Al-Thani, the country continues

to implement important initiatives that will propel Qatar to

ully developed nationhood, and strengthen its role in the

international community.

Qatar is at a crossroads. The country’s abundant wealth createspreviously undreamt o opportunities and ormidable challenges.

“Comprehensive

development is our

main goal in striving or

the progress and prosperity o

our people.”

Hamad bin Khalia

Al-Thani

1 1



It is now imperative or Qatar to choose the best development

path that is compatible with the views o its leadership and the

aspirations o its people.

The National Vision denes broad uture trends and reects

the aspirations, objectives and culture o the Qatari people.

By shedding light on the uture, the Vision illuminates the

undamental choices that are available to Qatari society.

Simultaneously, it inspires Qatari people to develop a set o

common goals related to their uture.

Qatar’s National Vision denes the long-term outcomes or

the country as a whole rather than the processes or reaching

these outcomes. It provides a ramework within which national

strategies and implementation plans can be developed.

The National Vision aims at transorming Qatar into an

advanced country by 2030, capable o sustaining its owndevelopment and providing or a high standard o living

or all o its people or generations to come.

22



Q atar’s sound management o its bountiul hydrocarbon

resources will continue to secure improvements in

standards o living. However, an improved standard o livingcannot be the only goal o a society. To remain true to its values,

Qatar must balance ve major challenges:

Modernization and preservation o traditions

The needs o this generation and the needs o uturegenerations

Managed growth and uncontrolled expansion

The size and the quality o the expatriate labor orce and theselected path o development

Economic growth, social development and environmentalmanagement

D e f i n i n g C h a r a c t e r i s t i c s o f Q a t a r ’ s

F u t u r e – O p p o r t u n i t i e s a n d C h a l l e n g e s

3 3



Modernization and Preservation o Traditions

Preservation o cultural traditions is a major challengethat conronts many societies in a rapidly globalizing and

increasingly interconnected world.

Qatar’s very rapid economic and population growth have created

intense strains between the old and new in almost every aspect

o lie. Modern work patterns and pressures o competitiveness

sometimes clash with traditional relationships based on trust

and personal ties, and create strains or amily lie. Moreover, the

greater reedoms and wider choices that accompany economic

and social progress pose a challenge to deep-rooted social values

highly cherished by society. Yet it is possible to combine modern

lie with values and culture. Other societies have successully

molded modernization around local culture and traditions.

Qatar’s National Vision responds to this challenge and seeks to

connect and balance the old and the new.

44



The Needs o this Generation and the Needs o Future Generations

Qatar will meet the needs o this generation withoutcompromising the needs o uture generations.

Sustainable development is a process that seeks to meet the needs

o the present generation without compromising the ability o uture

generations to meet their needs. This is oten called intergenerational

justice. The rights o uture generations would be threatened i the

depletion o non-renewable resources were not compensated by

the creation o new sources o renewable wealth. This could happen

in at least three ways. First, the nancial returns rom hydrocarbon

wealth could be used inefciently, delivering low returns. Second,

spending on “trophy” or conspicuous projects could prove costly.

And, third, overly aggressive economic development could lead

to economic overstress and risk, tipping the environmental scales

irreversibly. Qatar’s National Vision will choose the development

path that careully balances the interests o the current generation

with the interests o uture generations.

5 5



Managed Growth and Uncontrolled Expansion

Qatar wants to make up ground quickly, but there are

speed limits.

Qatar is currently experiencing great expansion in its economic

activities. However, this growth could deplete its resources,

overstrain its economy and derail it rom its targeted objectives.

Stresses rom economic overheating and imbalances can

maniest themselves in rapidly rising prices which, i persisting,

will lead to nancial vulnerabilities; deterioration in the quality o

public services; low and stagnant labor productivity; deterioration

in project quality and completion; environmental damage;

and widening social cleavages and tensions. For these reasons

Qatar must develop at a pace that is consistent with the realistic

expectations o sustainable improvements in livelihoods and in

the quality o lie. It must target growth rates that are compatible

with its capacity or real economic expansion.

6



The Size and the Quality o the Expatriate Labor Force and

the Selected Path o Development

Qatar must choose a development path that is compatible

with the targeted size and quality o expatriate labor that

are determined by Qatar’s leadership and people.

Qatar is currently experiencing high rates o population

growth due mainly to massive urban development, large-scale

investment projects and rising government expenditure.

These actors have led to a large increase in the ratio o

expatriates to locals in the labor orce, and a particularly sharp

and unanticipated rise in the immigration o unskilled workers.

The composition o a nation’s population will determine the

nature o its society. Qatar must determine a suitable size

and quality o its expatriate labor orce. It must weigh the

consequences o recruiting expatriate workers in terms o their

cultural rights, housing and public service needs, as well as

the potential negative impact on national identity, against theanticipated economic beneits that accrue rom an increase in

the numbers o oreign workers in the total labor orce.

7



Economic Growth, Social Development and Environmental

Management

Economic development and protection o the environment

are two demands neither o which should be sacrifced or

the sake o the other.

Development patterns can, and oten do, have negative eects

on the natural environment. Environmental degradation can be

reduced through investment in advanced technologies designed

to minimize the damage caused by economic projects. It can also

be reduced by avoiding rapid and unplanned growth. Even with

Qatar’s best eorts, it is impossible to entirely avoid harming the

environment, given a development pattern that depends in its

early stages on oil, gas, petrochemicals and heavy industries. Qatar

has already committed to enorcing international standards or

environmental protection when designing and implementing its

industrial projects. The country must also commit to making its

uture path o development compatible with the requirementso protecting and conserving the environment. Wherever there

is an environmental cost to be paid or economic progress, it

must be compensated with investments in technologies that

help improve the environment.

88



However, Qatar’s eorts in protecting the environment will

not be suicient. Qatar is a part o the Gul Region, which

orms one ecological system that is aected by the practices andactivities o every country in the region. It will be necessary to

engage and to encourage all o the Gul States to protect and

conserve the environment.

The next step in Qatar’s National Vision will be to resolve

these ve critical challenges.

T h e F i r s t P i l l a r – H u m a n D e v e l o p m e n t

H itherto, Qatar’s progress has depended primarily on

the exploitation o its oil and gas resources. But the

country’s hydrocarbon resource will eventually run out.Future economic success will increasingly depend on the

ability o the Qatari people to deal with a new international

order that is knowledge-based and extremely competitive.

To meet the challenge, Qatar is establishing advanced

educational and health systems, as well as increasing

the eective participation o Qataris in the labor orce. In

addition, Qatar will continue to augment its labor orce by

attracting qualiied expatriate workers in all ields.

Qatar aims to build a modern world-class educational

system that provides students with a irst-rate education,

comparable to that oered anywhere

in the world. The system will provide

citizens with excellent training and

opportunities to develop to their ull

potential, preparing them or success

in a changing world with increasingly complex technical

requirements. The system will also encourage analytical and

critical thinking, as well as creativity and innovation. It will

promote social cohesion and respect or Qatari society’s values

and heritage, and will advocate or constructive interaction

with other nations.

Education is one of the

basic pillars of social

progress. The state

health care, managed according

to world-class standards. This

system will meet the needs o

healthy and lengthy lie or all citizens. All health services will be

accessible to the entire population.

Qatar will strive to increase the eective labor orce participation

o its citizens. However, or the oreseeable uture Qatar will

not have a suicient number o

citizens to manage the complex

systems, inrastructure and other

requirements o a rapidly growing,

diversiying and technologically sophisticated economy. In order

to realize Qatar’s uture ambitions, it will be necessary to make up

or the shortages o local labor with expatriate workers. Attracting

and retaining the right mix o skills will require appropriate

incentives, as well as institutional arrangements or ensuring the

rights and saety o expatriate labor.

The State shall foster public health;

provide means of prevention from

T h e T h i r d P i l l a r – E c o n o m i c D e v e l o p m e n t

A vibrant Qatari economy is the oundation on which

economic prosperity and steady improvement in livelihoods

will be built. Sustaining prosperity over the long term requireswise management o exhaustible resources to ensure that uture

generations inherit ample means to meet their aspirations. This

management must secure optimum utilization o these resources

and create a balance between reserves and production, and

between economic diversication and the depletion o non-

renewable hydrocarbon resources.

Qatar’s bountiul hydrocarbon resources can be leveraged to

make sustainable development a reality or all its people.

Converting these natural assets into inancial wealth

provides a means to invest in world-class inrastructure; build

eicient delivery mechanisms or public service s; create

a highly skilled and productive labour orce; and support the

development o entrepreneurship and innovation capabilities.

I attained, these achievements would in turn provide a

broader platorm or the diversiication o Qatar’s economy

and its positioning as a regional hub or knowledge and or

high value industrial and service activities. However, the

challenges should not be underestimated.

The rst challenge is to enable the private sector to play an

essential role in achieving sustainable development. Trainingand support or entrepreneurs is a basic precondition or

enabling the private sector to carry out its required role, besides

The State shall guarantee freedom of

with the provision of the law.”


providing nancial and non-nancial support mechanisms

that will help incubate and

grow small and medium-scale enterprises. Qatar has

already made good headway

in developing a political and

organizational climate that

supports the business sector.

But urther steps to enhance

competitiveness and attract investment will be needed in a

dynamic and increasingly borderless international economy.

A second challenge will be to choose and manage a pathway

that delivers prosperity yet avoids economic imbalances

and stresses. Once ination becomes ingrained, or hurried

development projects are implemented, or public services

can no longer cope with bourgeoning demands, there will be

risks to sustaining prosperity and to social cohesion. Skilluland arsighted economic management and eective and agile

institutions will be needed to attenuate these risks.

Qatar’s economic strategy must be alert to a range o risks that

could potentially limit the achievement o its ambitions. The

best security against these risks lies in open and lexible

markets, aordable social protection mechanisms, andprecautionary and strategic nancial reserves.

The Fourth Pillar – Environmental Development

T he State o Qatar seeks to preserve and protect its unique

environment and nurture the abundance o nature granted

by God. Accordingly, development will be carried out withresponsibility and respect, balancing the needs o economic

growth and social development with the conditions or

environmental protection.

The environmental pillar will be increasingly

important as Qata r is orced to deal

with local environmental issues, such as

the impact o diminishing water and

hydrocarbon resources, and the eects o

pollution and environmental degradation,

as well as international environmental issues

such as the potential impact o global

warming on water levels in Qatar and thereby on

coastal urban development. Assessing the

severity o risks and dealing with anticipated

changes will require mobilizing capacities

and coordinating eorts to tackleproblems that arise.

The Qatar National Vision (QNV) logo is based on

a modular design. The central element o the logo

takes the orm o an eye, reecting vision. The cultural

pattern o its iris reects traditional Qatari culture.

This central element has a subtle relationship and

congruence with the map o Qatar in the GSDP logo.

The QNV logo is a modernized typographic Qatar,much like how the map is used in the GSDP logo.

The modular design looks structured, yet at the same

time its dynamic dimensions have been created

through the use o a diagonal line. The diagonal is

important because the text reads upwards, which

looks towards the uture. The QNV seeks to achieve

development progress, yet at the same time it aims to

preserve national culture.
