Start Early Program in Qatar

With the kind sponsorship of HSBC Qatar, Action Care conducted two Start Early Seminars in April for teachers of the Audio Education Complex (AEC)* and the Noor Blind Society in Qatar, a total of 65 students. Mr. Richard Geary, the director of Deaf Reach Schools of FESF in Pakistan, was invited to deliver a section of the seminar on the topic of Deaf Awareness and Deaf Culture for both sessions, which included fifteen Deaf assistant teachers. We would like to thank Mr. Safak Guvenc and the W Hotel in Doha for their partnership, which made this program possible.

*AEC is a newly established school in Qatar for the Deaf and hearing impaired.

I learned that anyone can make the world a better place and can make a difference. Now I feel confident that I can make a difference, and after I finish school I'm going to volunteer and try to make a difference myself. I'd like to thank the MOVE Program, because this program improves us, it improves our school and makes it a better place.
