October 29, 2025

The Ministry of Health and Prevention has honoured the outstanding schools that participated in the third phase of "Masar" project, an innovative initiative aimed at promoting healthy lifestyles among school students, combating obesity and enhancing health awareness.

- Gulf Today, Staff Reporter

The schools were honoured in recognition of their commitment to the programme's standards and their implementation of innovative awareness activities focusing on various health aspects related to students’ well-being.

These activities have led to qualitative changes in students’ behaviours, promoted health concepts aimed at reinforcing quality of life, and strengthened a preventive approach that safeguards children’s health while fostering supportive and sustainable school environments.

The fourth phase of Masar, launched in September and running until July 2026, aims to instil a culture of health among school-age children.
