The Chairman of the Supreme Judiciary Council highlighted the role of the Global Judicial Integrity Network initiative in achieving the desired goals of the judicial integrity pillar, one of the most important pillars of the implementation program of the Doha Declaration.

They are the main themes of the Doha Declaration on Judicial Integrity, which was adopted by the largest international judicial cooperation event in Doha during the second high-level conference of the Global Judicial Integrity Network hosted by the Supreme Judiciary Council in Doha in February 2020 and was the first of the Qatari international specialized action in this direction.
