QOC President HE Sheikh Joaan Bin Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani said:
“Hosting the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2032 remains our ultimate ambition. We have listened and learned from our two previous bids and humbly believe that we are now perfectly positioned to deliver a low-risk, sustainable and world-class edition of Games, which is perfectly aligned with Olympic Agenda 2020+5.
“We are looking forward to continuing our dialogue with the Future Host Commission. With the Games 11 years away, we hope to have the opportunity to discuss our plans with the Commission and develop our bid further, before a final decision is taken. We are confident that in continuing our dialogue with the IOC we can demonstrate how the Games in Qatar would make history, delivering an unprecedented legacy for our region and the Olympic Movement.”
Qatar boasts significant existing and planned transport infrastructure and accommodation, which allows the QOC to promise a low-risk Games, free from cost overruns. Qatar’s proposed Olympic venues are well served by the extensive transport network, helping to ensure minimal travel times during the Games and accessibility for a meaningful post-Games community legacy.
The QOC is committed to making sure the venues support community sport, and the Games can contribute to a healthier society in Qatar and the region.
