The Supreme Council for Women (SCW), in co-operation with UN Women, organised an event to introduce the third edition of the Princess Sabeeka bint Ibrahim Al Khalifa Global Award for Women’s Empowerment.
The session was held on the sidelines of the Second World Summit on Social Development in Doha.
The event was attended by Pakistan National Assembly member Aseefa Bhutto Zardari, alongside heads and representatives of national women’s and family affairs organisations from GCC and other nations.
SCW secretary general Lulwa Al Awadhi outlined the origins of the award, which was adopted by UN Women and officially announced in its third edition in March 2025 during the 69th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women in New York.
UN Women’s regional director for the Arab states and a member of the international jury of the global award Dr Moez Doraid outined the award’s objectives, criteria, and target groups.
