The University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST) proudly announces that its President, Dr. Salem Al-Naemi, has been awarded the honorary title of “International Ambassador for Social Responsibility” by the Regional Network for Social Responsibility. This prestigious recognition celebrates Dr. Al-Naemi’s exceptional and longstanding contributions to social responsibility and sustainable development, both nationally and across the Arab region.
The Regional Network for Social Responsibility, a professional non-profit organization with global memberships in leading international institutions such as the UN Global Compact, the International Rehabilitation Organization, and the International Union for Social Responsibility, selected Dr. Al-Naemi for his impactful leadership in embedding social responsibility principles within every institution he has served.
Dr. Salem Al-Naemi expressed his pride in receiving the honor, stating:
"This recognition is a reflection of the collective effort at UDST to champion social responsibility and sustainability. As educators and leaders, it is our duty to integrate these values into our academic and community initiatives, inspiring others to contribute to the well-being and development of society."
During the ceremony, Professor Dr. Ali Al-Ibrahim, Vice President of the Regional Network for Social Responsibility stated:
“Dr. Salem Al-Naemi embodies the model of an academic leader who believes that education is not merely the transfer of knowledge, but a mission to build individuals, advance communities, and strengthen values. Under his leadership, the University of Doha for Science and Technology has become a beacon of innovation, integrating education, social responsibility, and sustainability. Its initiatives have significantly contributed to national development, youth empowerment, and capacity building in alignment with Qatar National Vision 2030.”
The award ceremony was held in Doha, where a high-level delegation from the Regional Network for Social Responsibility officially presented Dr. Al-Naemi with the title. The recognition is part of the Network’s International Ambassadors for Social Responsibility program, launched in 2014 to honor distinguished figures from around the world who have demonstrated outstanding commitment to advancing social responsibility.
With this accolade, Dr. Al-Naemi joins a select group of Arab and international leaders recognized for their influence, dedication, and leadership in promoting ethical, inclusive, and sustainable practices at both the national and global levels.
