Ooredoo has officially opened its “Ooredoo Establishment” at KidzMondo Doha, Qatar’s one-of-a-kind edutainment city, in a special ceremony held at the edutainment establishment at the Mall of Qatar, allowing children to embark on a new interactive learning experience at the kid-sized theme park.

The special ceremony was attended by key senior executives from Ooredoo and KidzMondo, including Yousuf Abdulla Al Kubaisi, Chief Operating Officer, Ooredoo Qatar; Sheikh Nasser Bin Hamad Bin Nasser Al Thani, Chief New Line of Business, Ooredoo Qatar; Manar Khalifa Al Muraikhi, Director of Community and Public Relations, Ooredoo Qatar; Ramez Al Khayyat, GCEO & Vice President at Power International Holding, Nabil Barakat, General Manager at Aura Entertainment and Eman Baker Abu El Hawa, General Manager, KidzMondo Doha.

The partnership between Ooredoo and KidzMondo Doha aims to further enrich the establishment’s fun learning experience and help inspire children aged 2 to 14 years to realise their full potential and further their own development. KidzMondo Doha has been designed to provide a fun-filled and holistic learning experience in order to support physical and mental growth in youngsters, as well as help them boost their self-esteem and confidence. When they arrive at KidzMondo Doha, children are checked-in before they enter the city to become official ‘Kidizens’.

At KidzMondo Doha, Kidizens visiting the Ooredoo Establishment will be able to live the “Ooredoo Engineer Experience”, a unique telecoms experience designed to teach children about the power and potential of network technology. The children’s tasks include doing maintenance for the city by repairing tower signals, following a map to reconnect the buildings, and much more.

Manar Khalifa Al Muraikhi, Director of Community and Public Relations, Ooredoo Qatar, said: “We’re delighted with this partnership, as it allows Ooredoo to share insights into a complete telecoms experience, where children will be introduced to the old system of connecting telephone calls and how this has evolved to today’s technologies and the daily challenges of providing connectivity. Ooredoo strongly believes in the importance of empowering children by teaching them valuable life skills and giving them the tools they need to develop their own identity and realise their potentials.”

Commenting on the partnership, Ms. Eman Baker Abu El Hawa, General Manager of KidzMondo Doha said: “We are pleased to be launching this establishment with Ooredoo, Qatar’s leading telecommunications provider, which will strengthen and enable our young visitors to realise their potential and further their own learning and development. Through this activity, we are eager to augment our Kidizens’ imagination and passion to learn, with the aim of enabling them to realise their capabilities through interesting activities, including doing maintenance for the city by repairing tower signals, following a map to reconnect the buildings. This edutainment experience, which closely observes the telecoms sector, will educate children about the pivotal role this sector plays in our everyday lives.”

Once in the Ooredoo Establishment, visiting children with an interest in technology will be introduced to the old system of connecting telephone calls and how cables across the city are connected today to receive clear signals, while showcasing signal repair work of Ooredoo engineers in supporting the Ooredoo Supernet.

Through initiating its Ooredoo establishment, KidzMondo Doha is demonstrating its adaptability as an edutainment park that intends to customize and include brands that the youngsters can relate to and associate with closely, thereby creating a comfortable environment for young minds to thrive in.

The activities will support social, artistic, creative and cognitive development amongst others, while unlocking imagination and creativity in children and empowering them with knowledge, essential skills and life-lessons that will help them become well-versed individuals and prepare them for the professional world of adults with confidence and courage.

Regarded as the “city of education and entertainment,” KidzMondo Doha is led by a highly qualified team of educators and features an interactive kid-sized city spanning across a built-up area of about 8,000 sq m, designed to provide a fun-filled, immersive learning experience for visiting youngsters.
