Doha GOALS is committed to the development and education of children in need, harnessing the power of sport to help them recognize their potential. The organization strives to connect with children from different regions around the world who have great potential as both students and athletes and to provide them with the resources they need to flourish. Doha GOALS, a certified NGO, will support these exceptional boys and girls by granting scholarships to the recipients who will receive funding for the entirety of their scholastic fees until the end of secondary education. The NGO will also provide mentors to encourage the continued growth of the selected individuals.
In this, its inaugural year, the Doha GOALS NGO will be supporting children from Latin America, Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
Because we believe the youth of our world needs to play a leading role in creaEng a roadmap to build iniEaEves and partnerships for social improvement, we have invited 400 top students from around the world to become Doha GOALS Student Ambassadors.
These impressive young men and women will parEcipate in the debates and brainstorming taskforces at the conference, as well as interact with world leaders and some of their sporEng role models. With this iniEaEve, we are passing the baton to the youth of tomorrow to discuss and create an acEon plan for sustainable growth through sport.
Doha GOALS is more than a conference; it is a plaCorm to launch iniEaEves that use sport as a tool for social progress and economic development.
The Doha GOALS Forum in December 2012 will be used as a launching pad for several key iniEaEves that will take the Doha GOALS mission and put it into acEon around the world.
With an aim of execuEng these iniEaEves in January 2013, the forum will deliberate on resource allocaEon and implementaEon, and work towards creaEng efficient and effecEve projects.
