At a time of profound change in higher education, I look forward to working together to shape what comes next for Georgetown and the generations it serves.

#Ambassador Fahad Al-Attiyah discussed the links between #Islamic principles, sustainability and heritage during a lecture at Georgetown University in Qatar (@GUQatar) on Tuesday.
Titled “From Vision to Practice: #HeenatSalma, Sustainability and Heritage”, the lecture explored how knowledge rooted in Islamic civilisation could inform modern approaches to agriculture, architecture, craftsmanship and natural resource management.
Drawing on tawhid, the oneness of God, and khilafah, humanity’s role as custodian of the earth, Al-Attiyah said environmental responsibility extends beyond technology and policy.
Al-Attiyah said traditional buildings, crafts and agricultural practices reflected local materials, environmental conditions and generations of knowledge, and should be restored as contemporary practice.
At Heenat Salma, a 50-acre farm, he is exploring these principles through organic agriculture, traditional architecture, natural handmade textiles, and creative and intellectual work.
He said Qatar’s limited freshwater and productive soil, alongside its energy resources, provide a relevant setting for exploring long-term resilience.
The event was attended by ambassadors from #Albania, #Japan, the #Philippines and #Liberia.

It was great visiting Georgetown University in Qatar (GU-Q) and connecting with Acting Dean, Clyde Wilcox. As a Hoya (Georgetown alum), this visit was especially meaningful to me. We had a wonderful conversation about growing academic and educational partnerships.
We are honored to host Ambassador Fahad bin Mohammed Al-Attiyah, former head of Qatar’s National Food Security Program and former Ambassador to Russia and the UK.
In this session, Ambassador Al-Attiyah will dive into the story behind @HeenatSalma and Caravane Earth, exploring the intersection of regenerative agriculture, cultural heritage, and sustainability.
