Qatar: Hind Bint Hamad expected at QF


Issue 1009 - 05 Feb 2016 | 1 minute read

Emir Sheikh Tamim’s full sister Sheikha Hind Bint Hamad is expected soon to take up a “very senior position” at the Qatar Foundation (QF). This comes after the Supreme Education Council (SEC), of which she was president, was abolished in the administrative changes and reshuffle announced in late January (see Politics). The SEC’s mandate has fallen under the Ministry of Education. The announcement of Hind’s new job is expected to be made “in a couple of weeks”, once she has returned from maternity leave (after a baby in December). She already sits on QF’s board.
