Qatar Foundation’s (QF) Pre University Education (PUE) has concluded the summer edition of 'Mukayyamna' programme, that brought together over 600 students from both QF schools and various schools across the country. The enriching experience combined learning, interaction, and entertainment.

The annual platform, which empowers students beyond the traditional classroom setting, offers programmes that focus on developing skills in sports, sustainability, arts, music, and leadership, with a strong emphasis on personal growth and community engagement.

Rodha al-Saadi, head of Community Engagement at the Student Affairs and Community Engagement Department, PUE said: “Mukayyamna is a practical extension of the vision of QF’s PUE. Through this camp, we aim to nurture well-rounded, conscious individuals who are capable of making a positive impact on their community.”

She expalined: “The activities are designed to strike a balance between fun and learning, fostering skills such as leadership, communication, physical activity, critical thinking, teamwork, and self-discipline. Some activities also incorporate financial literacy, which enhances academic development in a non-traditional way."

According to al-Saadi, the activities place students in situations that require decision-making, taking responsibility, and dealing with real-life challenges, fostering independence and resilience. "The camp also includes awareness and community programmes that encourage students to think beyond themselves and engage with issues affecting the world around them.”

Al-Saadi noted that although the camp was primarily designed for QF students, deliberate efforts were made to involve students from other schools across the country. This approach aimed to broaden the programme’s social impact, promote inclusivity, and encourage the exchange of educational experiences.
