INTRODUCTION
our theme. This inaugural series of the WISE Research
Reports marks an exciting step in our efforts to bring
forward relevant, valuable, and timely information to all
of us committed to education as a tool of empowerment
and social change. In addition WISE has also partnered
with leading Qatar-based education institutions to
create the Meet Qatar Zone at the Majlis, which offers
participants the opportunity to find out more about the
innovative work of these organizations.
Under the guidance of Her Highness Sheikha Moza
bint Nasser and the leadership of Qatar Foundation,
WISE has continued to strengthen its range of dynamic,
ongoing programs. We welcome your interest and
involvement as we build upon these achievements and
we invite you to take advantage of the full range of
opportunities on offer at WISE 2015. Once again welcome
to WISE and welcome to Qatar.
