Doha Portal Ramadan 2022: Art as a driver for social change

Events Details

Throughout history, works of art have sparked important dialogues about social and political issues, challenged our thinking, and provoked emotion that leads to action. In this Portal conversation, they’ll connect artists from Doha and Mexico City to discuss how they use their work to illuminate local and global issues and advocate for change.

Doha Debates brings together diverse perspectives for vibrant dialogue on urgent issues. In partnership with Shared_Studios, our Doha Portal provides a curated space to learn, question, and connect.

Connecting people around the globe isn’t just a matter of internet connections. Shared_Studios’ Portals use physical spaces — like shipping containers, school buses, and even inflatable rooms — to make people feel like they’re sharing the same space with somebody elsewhere in the world. Through curated events like discussions, performances, and informational sessions, Portals bring the human connection to the forefront.
