The "On the Move" exhibition invites reflection on what we might learn from nomadic and semi-nomadic pastoral communities, focusing on three geographic regions— the Central Sahara in Africa, Qatar in the Arabian Gulf, and Mongolia in Inner Asia.

Visitors to the exhibition will start to wonder if they can use the methods of the nomadic communities in their daily life. In a world of overexploitation of natural resources, and great social inequalities, perhaps we might learn some useful practices from the nomadic communities.

Date and Timings:

• Thursday 27 October 2022, from 6 pm – 7:30 pm
  

Details:

• The lecture will take place at the Darwish Al Far Theater in the National Museum of Qatar.
