In line with QSAS CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (CPD) program, Gulf Organisation for Research & Development (GORD) is pleased to present in collaboration with Foster and Partners, Hoare Lea, Thornton Tomasetti & Arup a SEMINAR on: Sustainable Stadium Designs & Q-SAS Approach. Date: Location: Duration: Saturday 2 nd June Qatar national convention centre 9:00 am to 1:00 pm Seminar Overview: As Part of the QSAS CPD program, Foster and Partners, Hoare Lea, Thornton Tomasetti and Arup have been invited by GORD Institute(Gulf Organisation for Research and Development) to present their perspective on Sustainable Stadium Designs and the Integration of QSAS Sports Introduction The development of stadia is about much more than the pitch and the seating around it. It s about Master Planning, to ensure the Stadium, Fan Zone and Associated Transport links offer value to the community long after the World Cup Finals are over. In the case of Qatar 2022, it s maintaining a legacy value for African Nations, with whom Qatar has offered to share the knowledge, technology and materials used. For the fans, it s about creating an experience, which starts as you leave for the stadium and resonates for months, years or decades later. To quote Bill Shankley, the famous Liverpool Manager Football is not about life and death, it s much more important than that. Qatar 2022 is intertwined with the 2030 plan and represents a significant milestone in the development of the infrastructure and through the encouragement of sport, health of the nation. The World Cup Finals provide
a showcase, where Qatar is able to demonstrate its renowned hospitality and culture globally. As the World Cup Finals finish, elements of the stadia and associated infrastructure will be demounted and given to African Nations to encourage future generations. Against this background, the Qatar 2022 Committee elected to make a visionary commitment, to make the World Cup Finals Carbon Neutral and to be developed in accordance with QSAS Sports. As Architects, Engineers and Contractors, this provides a challenge that we must meet. Aim The CEU will be structured around a half day session (4 hours) and the aim of the session will be to: Listen to Professionals with Stadia Design experience across the World and in particular the Middle East. Raise awareness of all elements of Stadia Design from Master Planning to the Operation of the Stadium.
