    Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for Qatar!
    This thread identifies and maps key stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in Qatar. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

    How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework
    1- Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions focusing on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity in Qatar.
    Example: Institutions like Qatar University, Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU), and research centers such as Qatar Environment and Energy Research Institute (QEERI) focusing on renewable energy and environmental sustainability.

    2- Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
    Example: Companies like Qatar Petroleum transitioning towards green practices, green tech startups, financial institutions supporting sustainability projects, and energy companies working on carbon capture technologies.

    3- Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
    Example: NGOs like Qatar Green Building Council, Environmental Science Center at Qatar University, and local initiatives focusing on sustainability awareness and community resilience.

    4- Government and Public Sector: National and local government agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
    Example: Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), Qatar National Environment and Climate Change Program, and local councils developing climate adaptation policies.

    5- Natural Environment: Organizations managing ecosystems, protected areas, and promoting biodiversity conservation across Qatar.
    Example: Al Reem Biosphere Reserve, initiatives to conserve marine ecosystems, and programs focused on protecting Qatar’s unique desert biodiversity.
