The participants at the Youth Ambassadors Forum.
DOHA: The National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) has launched its Youth Ambassadors Forum.
The Forum allows the museum to work in collaboration with young people between the ages of 16 and 21 to facilitate informal discussions and workshops about what kind of engaging programmes young people would like to see at their national museum.
Qatar Museums has dedicated significant resources to engaging young people across the country to nurture creativity and appreciation for art through a myriad of education programmes ranging from school visits to teacher training. Gathering insights from NMoQ Youth Ambassadors for how these programmes can better serve them is an extension of this approach.
NMoQ is set to give voice to the country’s rich heritage and history whilst celebrating its future. Exhibitions will combine historic objects and contemporary influences, opening up a dialogue around the impact of rapid change. Innovative presentation techniques will excite audiences.
