Doha

The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE), in co-operation with Qatar Foundation (QF) and under the patronage and presence of HE the minister Buthaina bint Ali al-Jabr al-Nuaimi, Tuesday launched the 'Rasekh' initiative, an online educational platform affiliated with QF and accessible to all schools across Qatar.

Rasekh aims to provide high-quality educational experiences driven by local visions enabling schools to integrate curricula, local knowledge and innovations, values, heritage and national identity, and to identify global sustainability challenges related to the local context. The initiative also targets promoting the Arabic language, highlighting national values and identity, and promoting local knowledge.

By linking all knowledge societies within and outside Qatar Foundation while ensuring students’ access to knowledge in various fields, Rasekh is meant to encourage students’ works that reflect their values, morals and national identity, and to present their achievements locally and globally to proudly communicate with the world in their mother tongue.

Maha al-Ruwaili, assistant undersecretary for Educational Affairs at the MoEHE, said: “The platform achieves equality, inclusiveness, quality and unique opportunities to raise the level of education in the Qatari society. It represents an accessible but solid reference for all students in public and private schools to study.
