Youth is the pillar of any civilization and the fuel of any human
development In Qatar, HH Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani Emir
of the country wisely acted once again through the Emiri Decree stating
that the former General Youth Authority will be annexed to the Ministry of
Culture, Arts and Heritage, uniting thus the two streams of development:
Culture and Youth.
In Fact, the youth centers, the specialized centers and the associations are
covering all parts of the State, from borders to borders, attracting boys andgirls, reformulating their skills and thoughts and guiding them to the right
track. The developmental process, the support and the creation of a new
spirit in our Youth institutions shouldnt stop, since a cultural or an artistic
evolution will not exist without brains capable to bear responsibility and
hold the banner in the future.
We wont stop making emphasis on the partnership and the essential role
played by the youth eld, throughout its different centers and associations,
in the realization of Qatar future vision 2030 in which we all seek to
participate.
Youth centers in Qatar have achieved the hard task of integrating and
enabling girls and people with special needs to take part in the public and
community work, by providing the needed tools of support and boosting
them to represent Qatar in regional, Arab and international events.The youth institutions greatly contributed also over almost 50 years, since
the establishment of Al-Jasrah Club during the sixties of the previous
century, in producing generations whose members are now among the
country leaders in the different domains of the professional life.
Thus, Qatar has possessed an immense stock of expertise in the eld of
Youths work in addition to the institutions that gained international
participations and that are duly recognized today. They had great
contributions in the elds of administrating youth institutions, endorsing
plans and programs, follow-up and implementation of policies.
We all hope that our youth institutions achieve what we aspire thanks
to the reasonable policies of administrations and the available means of
attracting the targeted categories. Those institutions have to be a shield and
an assist to the families at home, to the teacher at school and to the Imamin the mosque, in order to build the proper personality and to preserve the
original Qatari Arab identity.
If the world celebrates the youths day only once a year, we celebrate
(thanks to God) our youth every day, standing committed to dedicate our
work to this nation.

Preamble
Over more than 30 years, youth work submitted successive and great
developments. This vital eld also went along several stages of ripening
and formation and proceeded until now The most important stages are:
HH the Emir of the State lled the position of Chairman of the Higher
Council for Youth Welfare since its establishment in 1979 until 1991.
Therefore, it is a great honor and a matter of pride for us, as we are
completing a process that was once introduced by His Highness with
his futuristic vision and thoughts. Today we are reaping the fruits of that
vision and thoughts under his sponsorship, care and wise leadership of the
country.
The rst stage came after the establishment of the Higher Council for
Youth Welfare and next to the promulgation of the Emiri Decree (90) for
the year 1990 which issued the establishment of the (General Authority for
Youth and Sport). In this period the features of youth movement gradually
started to appear on the surface. Thus, several youth institutions that played
various cultural and educational roles evolved in Qatar.
At the beginning of the new millennium, the General Authority of Youth
superseded the General Authority for Youth and Sport next to the Decree
(57) for the year 2000 issuing the appointment of the Chairman of the
General Authority of Youth. HE Sheikh Saoud Bin Khaled Al Thani served
as Chairman of the authority with the rank of Minister.
The Decree (5) for the year 2004 formed another distinctive stage in
youth journey: this decree issued the transference of (Youth Department)
from Qatar National Olympic Committee (QNOC) to the General Authority
of Youth.
By the end of the year 2008, youth eld with its two branches; Activities
and Youth Centers became afliated to the Ministry of Culture, Arts and
Heritage.
In 2009, a ministerial decision (81) was issued nominating Mr. SalmanIbrahim Al-Malik Director of the Youth Centers Department.
In 2010, a ministerial decision (107) was issued appointing Mr. Salman
Ibrahim Al-Malik Director of the Youth Centers Department.
In 2011, a ministerial decision (296) was issued appointing Mr.
Abderrazak Abdullah Saeed Al-Rabiaa Al-Kuwari Director of the Youth
Centers Department.

The Main Goals of Youth Centers
The Youth Centers Department oversees the implementation
of several common tasks and goals to which it is committed.
Those tasks and goals present an essential framework that youth
centers work accordingly. There are also other particular tasks
for each center that distinguish each one of them from the other
and meet the surrounding environment characteristics and the
type of interests of each centers afliates. The main goals of
those centers are the following:
Creating the appropriate environment to practice the different
hobbies and activities
Encouraging the afliates to participate in the local and foreign
competitions and events
Consolidating the values of loyalty and belonging
Enhancing the cooperation and the exchange of experiences
Proting from the spare time
Encouraging girls to engage in youth work as they represent
the half of the population
Preserving Qatar old heritage, traditions and customs
The organizational schedule of work at the youth centers
For further organization of work within the youth institutions,
HE Dr. Hamad Bin Abdulaziz Al-Kuwari, Minister of Culture,
Arts and Heritage issued the decision (133) for the year 2010.
This decision determines the organizational plan of work at the
youth institutions (Centers Clubs Associations) afliated to the
Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage. This decision highlighted
also the necessity of opening youth centers during holidays and
weekends to welcome youngsters and youth and allow them
practice their different activities. This idea presented a quantum
leap in the domain of youth work and won the approbation of
all due to its great impact upon the community. In fact, youth
would prot from their spare time during holidays by attracting
them to a fertile environment, where they can develop their
skills and talents. The ministerial decision dened also several
standards required in those who nd themselves able to properly
plan and manage any youth institution. This was in the context
of motivating the qualied citizens to ll the leading position in
youth work and habilitating those who are competent to promotewith the youth institutions. First of all, the candidate should be a
Qatari citizen. His/her academic qualications and experiences
should match with the centers activity and specialties in order
to avoid any disharmony between the academic qualication and
the activity dealt with. Moreover, the candidate should be more
than 25 years old, holding a higher degree and working full-
time for the youth institution. To emphasize the fairness of the
selection, the ministerial decision stipulated that the candidate
shouldnt be red before or his/her membership was denitely
suspended from any other authority working in the youth elds,
unless that incident happened at least four years before the new
candidacy.
When these conditions are met, the Youth Centers Department
appoints the selected candidate. Furthermore, and in order to create
a new spirit in the institution, the period of appointed candidate
and that of the board of directors should go in parallel. Therefore,
the period of appointment shouldnt be exceeded unless the new
board of directors issues a proposal about it. This proposal has to
be approved also by the Youth Centers Department.

Al-Khour Girls Center was established following the decision of the
Minister of Culture Arts & Heritage N. (39) of 2010.
The rst Board of Directors:
Mrs. Aisha Rashed Al-Muhannadi, Chairperson
Mrs. Hessa Ahmad Al-Muhannadi, Deputy Chairperson
Mrs, Emna Derwish Hudaib Messaood, Treasurer
Mrs. Hanan Salem Al-Noobi, Secretary General
Mrs. Moonira Ibrahim Al-Muraikhi, Member
The establishment of this center came in the context of the overall
orientation which works on propagating the youth institutions in the
different areas of the State, and particularly those including girlsactivities, in order to give them the chance to practice all activities that
correspond with their inclinations. Consequently, they will have the
chance to purposefully exploit their spare time and thus, both girls and
their social environment will benet from those activities.
This center is the rst of its kind in Al-Khour city which is one of Qatarbiggest cities and the second capital after Doha city. Al-Khour Girls
Center was established to take into account the rituals and the traditions
which forbid girls from attending centers situated far away from their
houses to practice their activities.
Al-Khour Girls Center, as the rst public center for girls in the State,
is effectively contributing to the building up of Qatari girls personality
and preparing her to be an active member in the society.
It is evident throughout this division that the roles of youth institutions
vary and harmonize in a splendid integral way. In fact, they tackled
almost all elds and created for every single talent an outlet and a space.
This wouldnt be accomplished without the effort of a comprehensive
department which adjusts the performance of the afliated institutions
and highlights the fact that the adequate administration is the secretbeyond the success of any institution. In the coming era, the department
is working on annexing new youth institutions to its organism, so that
all regions in the State from the north to the south will benet from
those efforts.
