QLC’s government leaders conclude learning journey to London

Qatar Leadership Centre’s (QLC) Government Leaders Programme participants recently completed their learning journey, focused on critical dimensions of public service with a week-long executive education programme in London, UK.

Designed in collaboration with the International School for Government, King’s College London, one of the top universities in social science and public policy teaching and research, the special programme explored issues in the field of government reform and public service development in the UK. It focused on professional insights and best practices, expanding the participants’ education in public service and government policymaking.

Dr Ahmed A al-Kuwari, general manager of QLC, said: “These participants belong to public institutions of great importance to Qatar. QLC supports these Qatari professionals by giving them the opportunity to absorb crucial lessons in governance and politics directly from renowned academics, policymakers and experts. This will help us bolster our own government institutions and aid their readiness in setting policies in accordance with international best practice.”

Participants engaged with high-level experts from academic and government institutions to examine current significant issues, such as Brexit as well as the Covid-19 pandemic’s impact on the economy, considering ramifications for the civil service and important lessons learned.
