10.19.2017. The president of Qatar’s National Human Rights Committee, Ali bin Samikh Al-Marri, gave this conference at the Casa Árabe headquarters in Madrid.
Al-Marri was introduced by Pedro Martínez-Avial, the General Director of Casa Árabe.
The outlook of Qatar’s National Human Rights Committee is based on the conviction that human rights constitute one of the most important matters in the national community, in particular, and the international community in general. Acknowledging these rights, whether they may be political, civil, cultural, social or economic, and whether they belong to individuals or groups, means making a commitment to equality, justice, freedom and human dignity for all human beings with no discrimination. Qatar’s National Human Rights Committee is an official national committee with a special status that seeks to increase awareness and educate people about rights, providing the necessary protection and support to individuals while developing skills.
