QPC Concludes Political Analysis Course

(MENAFN- Gulf Times) The course was presented by Dr Mustafa Osman al-Amin, Head of the Department of Islam and International Affairs, Professor of International Relations at Hamad Bin Khalifa University, and former Sudanese Minister of Foreign Affairs.

With 20 participants in attendance. Professor Saad bin Mohammed al-Rumaihi, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Qatar Press Center (QPC), distributed certificates to the participants and presented the Center's shield to Dr Mustafa Osman al-Amin.

Dr Mustafa Osman al-Amin emphasized that political analysis has become an academic discipline and method taught at the world's most prestigious universities as a branch of political science. It has gained importance in light of the political developments witnessed by the world, the struggle between major powers, and the succession of political crises and natural disasters. All of these issues require careful analysis to raise awareness among the general public and to understand the reality of what is happening in the world.

He explained that political analysis helps decision-makers understand reality and develop strategies for the future. He noted that political analysis varies between descriptive analysis, which describes the current situation; interpretive analysis, which explains the reasons behind what happened; and predictive analysis, which enables decision-makers to make appropriate decisions, either to confront developments, contain them, or fully address them.

Saad bin Mohammed al-Rumaihi spoke about the Center's role in qualifying personnel in specialised fields, noting that the "Political Analysis" course aligns with the Center's vision of building a solid knowledge base capable of interpreting and analyzing events according to scientific and professional foundations, contributing to the production of informed and influential political content.

He thanked Dr Mustafa Othman al-Amin for presenting the course and his keenness to cooperate with the Center to enhance political awareness through scientific and methodological tools.

Sadiq Mohammed al-Ammari, Director General of the QPC, announced the Center's readiness to organise an advanced course in political analysis in response to trainees' requests to develop their skills, especially since most participants hold positions that require a deeper understanding of political dimensions, qualifying them to analyze current events.

The Director General stated: "The Center will continue to offer more specialized courses in the coming period, including new courses in media protocol, AI, advanced political analysis, and news presentation, to hone the skills of those working in the field of journalism and media with the latest global developments in the profession."

The participants appreciated the efforts of the center in offering courses that meet the needs of all groups, whether students or employees.
