We thank them for their enthusiasm and dedication. We hope to bring everyone together again for the 24th Men's Handball World Championship in January."
Over the past months,Qatar 2015 launched a series of community initiatives and open houses to encourage people to sign up for its Volunteer Programme. It has been steadily building a team of 1500 volunteers from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds to provide an enriching experience for all at the main championship.
The two test events have also given the team first-hand experience of the requirements of international sports events and a structured feedback process has helped to ensure that sufficient support will be provided during the championship next year.
