Qatargas Takes Part in UNCTAD XIII

Qatargas is showcasing its sustainability profile at the thirteenth session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD XIII) which is currently being held at the Qatar National Convention Centre.

Qatargas’ pavilion at the exhibition, which is held on the sidelines of the UNCTAD XIII conference, sheds light on the company’s corporate social responsibility philosophy as well as the policies and programmes the company undertakes, along with its peers, with the objective of ensuring a sustainable future for both the State of Qatar and its citizens and residents.

Qatargas is also the exclusive sponsor of the daily news bulletin which is being circulated among the UNCTAD XIII delegates throughout the 6-day conference.

The theme of UNCTAD XIII is “Development-centred globalization: Towards inclusive and sustainable growth and development” and it focuses on how the global economy can spread its benefits more inclusively and sustainably, creating jobs and raising living standards for poor people and nations.

Qatargas’ participation in the UNCTAD XIII is a clear demonstration of the world’s largest LNG company’s commitment towards continuing its sustainable journey and the UN delegates visiting the pavilion are being briefed on the company’s success story.

The UNCTAD was created in 1964 as the focal point of the United Nations system responsible for trade and interrelated development issues. UNCTAD makes policy recommendations on trade, finance, investment, and technology, based on development-focused research and analysis.
