THE SIDRA TREE STORY
The sidra is a tree that is native to Qatar and flourishes in the country's harsh desert climate.
Traditionally, poets, scholars and travelers would gather in the shade of its branches to exchange knowledge and opinions. The tree's fruit, flowers and leaves were the ingredients of many traditional medicines.
The sidra occupies a special position in the affections of Qataris, and is an appropriate symbol for Qatar Foundation. Its deep roots can be seen as a strong anchor that connects contemporary learning with the country's culture and heritage.
