Today, the National Human Rights Committee celebrated the anniversary of World Teachers’ Day, which was approved by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization “UNESCO” to commemorate the signing of its recommendation and the International Labor Organization of 1966 regarding the conditions, rights and responsibilities of teachers.

In this context, Mr. Abdullah Ali Al-Mahmoud, Director of the Public Relations and Media Department of the National Human Rights Committee, said that after 18 months, the world has lived in the face of the (Covid-19) epidemic, many sectors of life have been affected, and there has been stagnation in all its vital areas, including the educational process. Therefore, as we move on the path of recovery and reconstruction, the World Teachers’ Day for 2021 has focused on providing teachers with the support they need to contribute to the recovery process of the education movement on the face of it. He also noted the achievements made by the State of Qatar in the educational movement, starting with the infrastructure of educational institutions and the educational and administrative staff, up to the humanitarian initiatives through the Education Above All Foundation, which launched the "Educate a Child" initiative, a Qatari initiative that struggles to save the world's children from ignorance, as it is a major humanitarian project at the global level, resisting the course of world events that have been exhausted by epidemics
