Qatar tribune Tribune News Network Doha The Ministry of Labour (MoL), in collaboration with Qatar Foundation (QF) and the Workers’ Support and Insurance Fund (WSIF), hosted a special event on Sunday at the Education City Theatre to mark the International Day for Tolerance. The event aimed to promote dialogue among the diverse communities in Qatar, foster social integration, and highlight the role of tolerance in achieving peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding. This initiative was part of the ongoing efforts by the MoL, the WSIF and QF to champion values of tolerance and cultural diversity, contributing to the development of a cohesive, strong and inclusive society.

It also underscores Qatar’s commitment to being a beacon of compassion, fostering national unity through empathy, and embedding these principles within its institutional framework. The day featured a series of cultural and artistic performances by various communities, highlighting the importance of tolerance and cultural diversity, which was attended by Kholoud Saif Al-Kubaisi, executive director of the WSIF. Additionally, the ‘Akhlaquna’ initiative was launched, alongside an awareness campaign under the slogan ‘In Our Compassion Lies Our Strength’ and the release of a guide outlining the campaign’s objectives and target audience.



The campaign aims to promote compassion through core values such as cooperation, empathy and mutual respect, and to translate these into actionable behaviours. As outlined in the guide, the campaign calls for collaboration across all sectors—both public and private—and the involvement of key influences to spread the message of compassion throughout institutions and society, transforming it from an abstract ideal into a concrete way of life.
