Her Highness was welcomed to LifeHub, located in the Innovation Center of the International Zone at Expo 2023 Doha in Al Bidda Park, by Dr. Javaid Sheikh, Dean of WCM-Q.

LifeHub was further privileged to receive a visit from Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Chairperson of Qatar Museums, Doha Film Institute, Reach Out to Asia, and Qatar Leadership Centre, as well as His Excellency the Minister of Municipality Abdullah bin Hamad bin Abdullah Al Attiya, and His Excellency the Minister of Environment and Climate Change Dr. Abdullah bin Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Subaie.

In addition, LifeHub was honored to be visited by Her Excellency the Minister of Public Health Dr. Hanan Mohamed Al Kuwari, plus a delegation of senior health ministers from across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. More than 70 ambassadors representing nations all over the world have visited LifeHub since the installation opened in October 2023, as have more than 70,000 members of the public, including many visits from school groups. The LifeHub installation has proven extremely popular and has become a landmark destination for both local people and visitors to Qatar from abroad. 

LifeHub is a state-of-the-art immersive educational experience held in collaboration with the Ministry of Municipality and the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change. The pavilion’s many innovative experiential installations showcase four key dimensions that can be connected to create a healthier and more sustainable future for the planet, these being Climate Change; Sustainability; Nutrition & Wellness; and Science, Technology & AI. These immersive experiences demonstrate a wide range of pressing concerns, including the challenges of rising sea levels, global warming and changing weather patterns, the devastating impact of plastic waste on sea life, deforestation, and other environmental issues caused by human activity. 

The LifeHub Pavilion is open to the public and will remain in situ until March 28, 2024.
