Qatar's National Human Rights Committee (NHRC) took part in a workshop held in Tunis, under the title "Facing social transformations - inclusive and sustainable cities".
  Organised by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (Unesco), the European Training and Research Centre for Human Rights and Democracy, in cooperation with the Arab Institute for Human Rights, the workshop aimed at promoting a network of cities to exchange experiences and knowledge to formulate policies against racism, discrimination, xenophobia and intolerance.
The workshop, which was attended by NHRC's Head of Media and Public Relations Unit Abdullah Ali Al Mahmoud, reviewed various developments in the Coalition of Arab Cities against Racism, Discrimination, Xenophobia and Intolerance and its activities to confront the phenomena of intolerance, hatred and extremism.
Qatar's National Human Rights Committee (NHRC) routinely participates in international conferences and workshops to promote human rights.
