The Social Development
Education is free in Qatar at all stages, and students in government schools are provided with free books and transportation, as well as financial incentives.
The standard of living in Qatar is considered one of the best worldwide, thanks to the comprehensive social care programme established two decades ago. Medical care and medicines are available for both citizens and residents, and hospitals and medical centres are equipped with the latest technological devices.
Qatari women participate actively in several social service fields and have played an important role in women's social and charity activities. They have also penetrated all fields of work.
Leisure time facilities are also provided for, including many local attractions such as the zoo, Doha Corniche, al-Wakra and al-Khor parks as well as the 'Alladin King' Fun City. Some might prefer to stroll along the Fourairt, Dukhan and Khor al-A'deed beaches, as well as Sileen resort and al-Nakheel island facilities.
The General Authority of Youth and Sports supervises 13 sport associations and 14 clubs, of which nine are sport clubs, together with the Youth Centres Society.
