HER HIGHNESS SHEIKHA MOZAH

Message from Her Highness

Education City was born of the concept that education is the key to a nation's future. Qatar has been blessed with many natural resources, but none as vital as our people. The universities and projects that populate Education City are therefore essential building blocks for us. We have brought leading degree programs in engineering, business administration, computer science, design, foreign service, and medicine - all disciplines that are critical to our ability to sustain the many advances we are making. And there are more universities to come.

The addition of Sidra Medical and Research Center to Education City is perhaps our most ambitious and far-reaching project to date. Not only will it allow our medical students to learn in one of the finest and most technologically advanced facilities anywhere, but it will provide healthcare of the highest global standards to the people of Qatar and the Gulf region. As a fundamental element of its design, it will provide specialty care for women and children to help nurture and protect our families - the heart of our culture.

Moreover, Sidra's biomedical research center will open a significant new chapter in Qatar's history, allowing us to contribute to the discovery of scientific knowledge in regard to diabetes, cardiovascular disease and other serious illnesses that afflict people here and around the world.

From the beauty of its architecture and healing gardens to the cutting edge technology and luxurious interior, Sidra will embody Education City's reputation for quality and excellence.

- Her Highness Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned
Chair of Qatar Foundation and Consort to the Emir

Withnail said buildings don't make a hospital ...

it takes good systems, good procedures, good people.

al ahli is a nice hospital, arguably the nicest one in Qatar. one of the doctors there screwed the pooch while my wife was delivering and made a mistake that caused severe complications. communication was terrible between doctors and the anesthesiologist and that almost caused a whole new set of problems.

Withnail, no Al Ahli is not the nicest hospital in Qatar!! Oh and never trust a doctor with delivering babies, go somewhere where there are midwives....Abu Dhabi is the nearest place!

With a visionary leadership from the current Ruler, Qataris "learning curves" in developing the nation will significantly improve in the next ten to twenty years from today.

spend all the money you like in health care but before cosanguineous marriages are the exception and not the rule...and there is no culture of healthy eating or exercise.. general health will not improve that much...
