The Doha International Center for Interfaith Dialogue (DICID) in collaboration with the Indian Youth Forum Qatar is organising an ‘Indian Youth Conference’ on Friday.
The event titled “solidarity for value based life” will be held at the Qatar Volleyball Association Hall near Al Arabi Sports Club in Hilal. Prominent Qatari and Indian personalities will address the conference to be attended by about 2500 Indian youth in Qatar.
Prof Ibrahim Saleh Al Naimi, Chairman of DICID, will inaugurate the conference. DICID is the official forum established in Qatar for spreading the culture of dialogue, the peaceful coexistence of humanity and the acceptance of others. The Center holds annual conference for interfaith dialogue among major religions discussing important humanitarian issues to reach common conclusions, to build cooperation and harmonious coexistence and to make them serve values of justice and peace.

Hundreds of young people attended in various youth meets held preparatory to the conference. Discussions on art and literature held in Al Hilal, youth meets at Ain Khalid, Medinat Khalifa, Al Khor and Al Wakra were all marked by active and overwhelming participation of youngsters.
Family meets, flat meets, park gatherings, friends circles and cafe meets were also held in different parts of Doha to popularise the theme of the conference and the attendees of those gatherings will join as delegates in the May 1conference. In all these meetings, DICID and Youth Forum urged the youth to stand for values like justice, equality and welfare and to come in solidarity with the people struggling around the globe peacefully and democratically for a better world.
