Today I had the pleasure to welcome H.E. Dr. Álvaro Renedo Zalba, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Spain to Qatar,
a distinguished diplomat and a fellow scholar and leader, at @nuqatar.bsky.social We had a great conversation about higher education, global politics, and comics!
My favorite moment today @nuqatar.bsky.social was a preview of our soon to be unveiled #Wellness room, a haven to catch your breath and recharge. Thank you to our HR team for helping us make sure that excellence and wellness go hand in glove!

Last week, we hosted the Key Moments in Media and Culture Conference at @nuqatar.bsky.social, where scholars reflected on history, memory, mediation, and affect, asking how events become remembered as “key moments.”
