The Menthaar programme is a year-long programme aiming to introduce Culture Pass Plus and Culture Family members to Qatar’s projects to build a sustainable future. The Menthaar programme holds a series of tours, webinars, talks, and workshops with the purpose to educate about Qatar’s heritage, culture, and environment. 

Qatar Museums’  Museum Affairs Deputy CEO Aisha Al-Khater said: “Menthaar is a newly launched programme that invites Culture Pass and Culture Pass Plus members to learn more about the exciting projects across Doha that are contributing to Qatar’s overall sustainability strategy to secure a greener future. We encourage our valued members to sign up to one or more of these offerings to explore more of Qatar’s sustainable initiatives,”
