This report focuses on the creation of an innovation district for Education City in Doha, a 12 square kilometer precinct that houses Qatar Foundation and its associated institutions. Education City in Qatar started over 25 years ago as an Arab-Islamic renaissance project, promoting sustainable development in the Arab world and creating impactful changes from an academic, research, and societal perspective and building future ready communities. Earthna was set up by the Qatar Foundation as a new policy center to generate evidence-based policy recommendations and help Qatar in its continued path towards sustainability.

Partnering with world leading social data analytics platform Neighbourlytics, this report provides the data needed for accurate decision making in the creation of sustainable cities. Neighbourlytics’ proprietary social analytics platform provides unique insights into this missing human data gap: the Urban Life of precincts. This report provides key insights into Education City as an Innovation Precinct from a hyper-local lifestyle lens, highlighting successes, shortfalls and, most importantly, opportunities.
