Al-Afiyah Channel is first health platform
The Qatari Al-Afiya Health Channel, founded by former Minister of Health Dr. Abdul Rahman Al-Kuwari, has been launched with the aim of raising health awareness and focusing on the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. The initiative comes in response to the rising rates of both conditions (71% of the population participating in the 2023 survey have a BMI of 25 or higher, and 18.1% are diabetic), through awareness campaigns based on reliable scientific sources and the simplification of medical information for the public. The "121" campaign will start tomorrow and continue until November, emphasizing the importance of early screening and changing healthy habits to achieve sustainable results, while addressing challenges related to funding and building trust in trusted health information.
