Qatar University Press (QU Press) has stressed the importance of scientific and literary publications and their role in the civilised urbanisation.
“QU Press adopts the university’s objective of publishing various researches and refereed scientific studies, as well as editing, designing and production of books and scientific journals. In this regard, the company focuses on publishing of printed and digital books and scientific journals, and allowing free access to some of them,” said a press statement from QU Press
Prof Ali A Alraouf, professor of Architecture and Urbanism, research and development advisor at the Ministry of Municipality and Environment, and the author of the book ‘Architecture, Urbanism and a City after the Corona Pandemic’, which will be published by QU Press this year, said, “Creating an atmosphere of creativity, invention, independence and critical culture, as well as encouraging research ideas and constructing perspectives and visions, are all part of producing knowledge. As a result, we were not shocked when we observed development and economic scientists agreeing to stress new transformations in the dominant economic conceptions, as well as the move to agricultural and industrial economies.
“The present era is marked by countries and nations that have opted to embrace the ideas of a knowledge and creative economy based on innovation and the production of minds rather than farms and factories. As a result, the prosperity of new countries is based on the balance of creative minds, thinkers, and researchers who develop information.”
Alreem Aladba, research project manager at QU Press, said: “Scientific research publication is one of the most essential tools for society’s development and progress toward civilization. If we look at Qatar University Press in particular, we can observe that it is a fully academic scientific publishing business. It is a non-profit organization in Qatar that aims to support, develop, and publish research in digital and paper formats, and specializes in publishing books and articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals from a variety of disciplines, including social and human sciences, applied sciences, and others.” Mohamed Bousserghine, Senior Acquisitions Editor at QU Press, highlighted the importance of scientific publishing, whether in refereed journals and periodicals or paper and digital books, in achieving a civilisational leap in the scientific areas.
