11 January 2026




The State of Qatar, represented by the Shura Council, will host on Tuesday and Wednesday the 298th session of the Executive Committee of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), as part of its ongoing support for multilateral parliamentary work and its efforts to strengthen international dialogue and coordination among parliaments.
The meeting is set to discuss a range of topics on the agenda, foremost among them the evaluation of the progress made in the the implementation of the Union's current strategy, and the general directions for the next five-year strategy, as well as several organisational and parliamentary issues related to enhancing the Union's role and the effectiveness of its mechanisms.
The State of Qatar's hosting of this session underscores its firm approach to supporting joint international action and reinforcing the role of parliamentary institutions—particularly the Executive Committee—in guiding international parliamentary work, contributing to addressing regional and global challenges, and promoting peace and development, in line with its vision based on dialogue and constructive collaboration.
