Dr. Chafic Chaya, the RIPE NCC regional manager for Public Policy and
Government Affairs, expressed enthusiasm about empowering the Qatari
Internet and academic communities, stated: “The RIPE NCC is enthusiastic

about empowering the Qatari Internet and academic communities, which
comes alongside our strategic partnership with the Communication
Regulatory Authority in Qatar (CRA).

Today, this collaboration with UDST’s College of Computing and Information
Technology contributes to our organisation’s standing as a trusted player in
education and development in the Internet sector.”

The discussions highlighted the importance of programs like the RIPE
Academic Cooperation Initiative (RACI) and the RIPE NCC Community Project
Fund (CPF), which foster academic and research engagement within the
Internet community. These platforms encourage students and researchers to
showcase their research and gain insights from global Internet experts.

Looking ahead, RIPE NCC and UDST plan to include a RIPE NCC e-learning
course on IPv6 in the CCIT curriculum for the academic year 2024-2025,
underscoring their commitment to equipping students with necessary skills in
emerging Internet technologies.
