(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Registration will soon end for the fourth annual Maersk Oil & Qatar Petroleum (MOQP) Challenge, a corporate team-building event that will take place amid the dunes of the Arabian desert, at Sealine Resort, on November 14 and 15.
Till date, some 20 teams from leading organisations across a range of sectors in Qatar, including automotive, health, energy and professional services, have signed up to compete in the five-stage event.
The annual challenge promotes the work of Action on Diabetes (AoD), a public-private partnership initiated and funded by Maersk Oil Qatar, which aims to raise awareness of diabetes, help those at risk to avoid it and give people already living with diabetes advice on managing their health better.
The MOQP Challenge brings together participants from some of Qatar's biggest and most established organisations and institutions to take part in a set of challenges that will test their ability to work as a team, think on their feet and act under pressure.
This year, up to 30 teams are expected to compete in and around the Sealine Resort. All money raised from registration fees will be donated to Qatar Foundation's Qatar Diabetes Association through the AoD partnership. This will be used to fund the 15th Al Bawasil Camp, a seven-day educational camp for children with diabetes from Qatar.
Last year's MOQP Challenge had raised $110,000 for the work of the AoD campaign, taking the total amount raised till date to more than $300,000.
