Qatar Museums
Years of Culture legacy book
I am currently working on a book about the legacy of the Years of Culture programme, exploring and documenting the lasting impact of the past 14 years of partnerships. The project has been commissioned by Qatar Museums, through Cultureshock Media.
Culture is one of the most effective tools to bring people closer together, encourage dialogue, and deepen understanding between nations. Under the leadership of its Chairperson Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Qatar Museums (QM) developed the annual “Years of Culture” initiative — an international cultural exchange that deepens understanding between nations and their people. Though formal programming lasts only one year, the ties of friendship that are strengthened and formed are long-lasting.
