3 Creating a global hub for sport, art and culture The first decade of the new millennium saw Qatar project itself onto the world scene as an outstanding destination for cultural, artistic and sporting activity. Qatar Tourism Authority has worked tirelessly to develop Qatar’s unique sustainable tourism offer, while Aspire Academy has established itself as a globally-renowned centre of sporting excellence. Qatar Museums has helped Qatar find a distinctive and rich voice in the global arts scene, with the Doha Film Institute further fostering this spirit of creativity and cooperation. All of these organisations are truly inclusive, inviting the world’s diverse communities to come together and share in the joy that sport, arts and culture can bring.
