Doha: For providing learning opportunities to its 80,000 inhabitants, the city of Al Wakra has been awarded the 2021 UNESCO Learning City Award.

Its announcement coincided with yesterday’s ceremony on the Learning City Award 2021 in Yeonsu, South Korea, attended by representatives from the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL).

“Congratulations to Al Wakra on winning the 2021 UNESCO Learning City Award for outstanding progress in #lifelonglearning. The city has made lifelong learning a priority as part of its sustainability plan, with a focus on vulnerable groups,” stated UIL.
