Doha: The Organising Committee for the Doha
2030 Asian Games has launched the Games' flag tour across Qatar, with visits
planned to schools, universities, and institutions throughout the country.
The initiative follows Qatar's official
receipt of the Olympic Council of Asia flag during the closing ceremony of the
20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, marking a new phase in preparations
for Doha's hosting of the continental sporting event in 2030.
Since its launch, the tour has visited
several educational institutions, including Academyati School of Qatar
Foundation, Qatar Academy, Doha University of Science and Technology, and Qatar
University. The initiative has allowed students to see the flag up close and
meet athletes from various sports, including champions and medallists whose
achievements serve as an inspiration to future generations.
Over the coming weeks, the flag will travel
to additional schools, universities, and institutions across Qatar, aiming to
engage all segments of society in the journey towards the Doha 2030 Asian
Games.
Chief Executive Officer of the Doha 2030
Asian Games Organising Committee, Dr. Ahmed Abdullah Al Buainain, said the
arrival of the Asian Games flag in Qatar marks an important milestone on the
road to Doha 2030. He added that the tour was designed to bring the flag to
individuals and communities who would help shape the journey towards the Games,
particularly younger generations who would grow up in the build-up to the
event.
The tour brings together Qatari athletes, students, teachers, and institutional representatives through interactive activities that encourage dialogue and the exchange of views on their aspirations for the Doha 2030 Asian Games. It also offers an opportunity to reflect on the values of sport and ambition while revisiting the legacy of the Doha 2006 Asian Games and connecting it with a new generation. The flag tour forms part of broader preparations and embodies the spirit of the event's slogan, "The Games We Live For," bringing athletes, young people, and communities together through the unifying power of sport.
