Doha, Qatar: The National Planning Council (NPC) has launched ‘Al Tanmiya’ (Development) podcast series, a new dialogue-based platform designed to foster ongoing and structured community dialogue on the Third National Development Strategy (NDS3).
The platform also aims to highlight key milestones and aspects of the comprehensive national development journey of the State of Qatar.
The launch of the ‘Al Tanmiya’ podcast is part of the Council’s ongoing efforts to extend the National Development Forums through a comprehensive dialogue framework.
This initiative is based on the principle that development requires more than plans and policies alone; it relies on ongoing community dialogue that bridges the gap between planning and reality, while enhancing understanding of the State’s developmental priorities.
Abdulaziz Ahmed Al-Fehani, Assistant Secretary-General for NPC Affairs, stated: “True development is built upon an ongoing dialogue among all members of society, a dialogue that informs decision-making, accompanies it throughout the process, and assesses its impact on people’s lives. Inspired by this principle, the ‘Al Tanmiya’ podcast was launched to broaden this dialogue, providing a more accessible and in-depth platform to explain national development trajectories and connect strategic planning to implementation, as well as policies to the daily lives of people in the community.”
He further noted that the ‘Al Tanmiya’ podcast reflects the Council’s commitment to leveraging strategic communication to transform the NDS3 from a planning framework into a shared reality.
He emphasised that the goal is to instill a sense of shared responsibility among individuals, institutions, and businesses, thereby enhancing active participation in the State of Qatar’s comprehensive and sustainable development journey.
