The Craftsmanship is an innovative waste management and upcycling initiative by Mowasalat (Karwa) designed to inspire environmental responsibility and creativity among employees. This hands-on program transforms discarded materials from our operations—such as scrap wood, plastic, rubber, and metal—into meaningful crafted items and artworks.

Paper Recycling Initiative
As part of our Sustainability Week celebrations, our Sustainability Team and students are launching a Paper Recycling Initiative to promote environmental responsibility within our school community. Students will take action by placing collection boxes in classrooms to gather used paper, which will then be sent to a recycling factory. This initiative encourages everyone to reduce waste, reuse resources, and contribute to a greener planet.

The Policy Forum will take place over two days, combining closed-door working sessions with public-facing events. The Forum will bring together 50+ members of the Rihla Policy Council, along with invited experts, policymakers, and institutional partners. Public sessions will also engage the wider Doha-based policy, academic, and diplomatic communities.
