Doha: French Ambassador Eric Chevallier and his wife hosted a lunch at their residence for prominent Qatari women from the economic, cultural, management, media and other sectors to mark International Women’s Rights Day. The lunch was organised in honour of prominent Qatari women, along with Caroline Carpentier, author of the book, Qatar Success Stories, Inspiring Women.
The ambassador reminded the importance of women’s rights in the world: “This issue should be a day to day commitment and we still all have a lot of efforts to do in this matter.”
He praised Qatari women’s active role in society and said: “I’m really impressed, since I arrived in Doha, by Qatari women’s dynamism and their presence in all fields of activity, whether in public or private sectors. “I’m convinced that their role and their place will be even more important in the upcoming years.”
