The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) has recently organised the National Workshop for Setting Health Research Priorities in the State of Qatar with broad participation from representatives of research and academic institutions, healthcare organisations in the State of Qatar, and the World Health Organization (WHO), as part of ongoing national efforts to advance the health research system and achieve the highest levels of quality in alignment with national priorities and the country’s strategic visions.

During the workshop, structured voting sessions were held on the research priorities derived from preparatory meetings and discussions, with voting conducted using clear scientific evaluation criteria, enabling all participants to assess the priorities in an objective and transparent manner.
