During her recent trip to Qatar, Shakira, a well-known Colombian singer and philanthropist, was invited by the Education Above All Foundation. She had the opportunity to attend the WISE Summit 2019 and also visited Education City to learn more about Qatar Foundation’s initiatives in education, science, research, and community development. Shakira’s humanitarian and advocacy work is centered around promoting universal education and early childhood development. She has established various foundations such as the Barefoot Foundation, the Pies Descalzos Foundation, and the ALAS Foundation. These organizations focus on implementing integrated early childhood public policies, enhancing children’s education, nutrition, and health, and striving to make education accessible to all children.
