Awareness Activities

Seabed and Beach cleaning with specialized scuba divers at The Pearl Qatar in collaboration with UDC

“Plogging” combines “jogging” with “plocka upp,” the Swedish phrase for “pick up.” It’s as straightforward as it sounds: you jog, you pick up litter, you keep jogging. If you’re an outdoor runner or walker, you’ve likely noticed a lot of litter on the sidewalk, grass and forested areas. Not only does this activity allow you to get in your daily exercise, but you’re helping to clean up your route.

Back 2 Business 2019 is the biggest international networking event in Qatar, supported by eight international business organizations.

Saturday, November 2 - Press Conference of Back 2 Business.

Wednesday, November 6, 7pm - Back 2 Business event will take place

In line with Qatar Sustainability Week, and as part of the company's Corporate Social Responsibility, Qetaifan Projects will be running an internal competition where each employee will create a craft using recycled material and bring it to the office. Employees will then vote for the best craft, and the winner will receive a prize.

A week long of paper and plastic recycling and promoting the awareness among the employees.

The activity aims to:

Encourage the Mosanada employees to adopt eco-friendly initiatives geared at reducing waste nationwide and to remind the public that reducing the use of Qatar’s resources not only can improve business efficiency, but help to preserve the environment’s long-term health. We will collect recyclable materials such as the list below by providing a collection box to be stationed at the Gharafa A office, Gharafa B and Al Khor accommodation.

ASD invites members of its school community to bring in obsolete electronics to be recycled in a responsible way. Education about the importance of correct disposal of e-waste will be shared

To showcase our support towards the Qatar Sustainability Week 2019 initiative, we at Mövenpick Hotel Doha will turn off all the lights in the public areas of the hotel between 7:00 AM - 1:00 PM respectively between 26th October 2019 - 2nd November 2019.

We will also urge our hotel guests to participate by doing their part to turn off lights within their respective rooms during this time period.

As part of the Qatar Sustainability Week 2019 initiatives, we at Mövenpick Hotel Doha will be observing no elevator day on 27th October 2019 for guests as well as employees in order to do our part to consume less energy.

The same will be communicated to our guests through our in-room television screens in order to save paper which would have normally been used to send out letters to the guests for such activities.

As part of our commitment towards environmental responsibility and sustainability, and to show our continuous support towards Qatar Sustainability Week, the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center will activate a "GO-GREEN" Awareness Campaign by sending an email to all DECC Management and Staff members which will focus on importance of preserving the energy (switching off the lights when leaving work space, closing the doors to preserve the temperature, switching off A/C or reducing the Mode, etc.
