(MENAFN- Gulf Times) The Protection and Social Rehabilitation Center (Aman), one of the centers operating under Qatar Foundation (QF), launched the interactive game "Aman Journey" on Tuesday. The event was organised in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) and the Doha Bank Group (DBG), marking the celebration of World Children's Day 2025, observed annually on November 20.
The launch took place in a dedicated QF pavilion, with Assistant Undersecretary for Special Education Affairs, Omar Abdulaziz al-Naama, alongside several of Aman's partners from various sectors in attendance. Acting Executive Director of Aman, Fadhel bin Mohammed al-Kaabi, emphasised that the center is committed to producing innovative interactive programmes for children, noting that the game aims to strengthen children's awareness of social protection issues, imbue them with skills to hold off all kinds of violence, and reinforce personality building and positive behavior.
It is essential to merge technology with awareness projects targeting women and children alike. This approach aligns with Qatar National Vision and efforts to support innovation, as well as the objectives of the Third National Development Strategy, which emphasizes digital economy advancement and leveraging technology more broadly to serve the community, al-Kaabi highlighted.
He stressed the need for concerted efforts among relevant agencies in the educational and health sectors to ensure a safe environment for children and to push back against violence directed at them, considering them the cornerstone of the future. Director of Community Awareness at Aman, Bukhita al-Ghiathin, explained that the game is an interactive digital platform available on the MoEHE's Qatar Education portal, targeting children aged 4 to 8 years.
The game takes the child on a journey through landmarks in Qatar, delivering awareness content in a question-and-answer format, away from conventional methods, thereby strengthening the child's understanding of social protection mechanisms and how to safeguard themselves at home and in public spaces, outlined al-Ghiathin.
Director of the Office of Communication & Media at Aman, Hanan al-Ali, underscored the importance of community partnership in the success of the project, noting that DBG provides prizes for participants, selecting the best player who applies healthy behavioral practices in interactions with others.
The game will be available to all public and private schools via the Qatar Education Platform and will be introduced through Aman's awareness workshops in schools, alongside a dedicated pavilion to showcase and operate the game for visitors, as well as promotion through social media platforms, she said.
