Msheireb Properties partners with Cundall to decarbonise its entire portfolio
Sustainability Msheireb Properties partners with Cundall to decarbonise its entire portfolio By Each building has been assessed against Cundall's Seven Steps to Net Zero Carbon, with detailed action plans developed to reduce operational energy consumption Qatar-based developer Msheireb Properties has partnered with global multi-disciplinary consultancy Cundall to decarbonise its entire portfolio in Msheireb Downtown Doha. The initiative is said to be the first of its kind at this scale in Qatar, reinforcing Msheireb Properties position in sustainable urban development and supports the goals set out in the Qatar National Vision 2030. As part of the project, Cundall said that it conducted a detailed carbon footprint analysis across the full asset portfolio which includes over 100 buildings, 800+ residential units, and 300+ retail spaces. The decarbonisation strategy targets emissions reductions across all three GHG Protocol carbon accounting scopes (1, 2 and 3) and aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a globally recognised benchmark for decarbonisation. 'This is more than a sustainability initiative – it's a pivotal step in redefining the future of urban living in Qatar,' said Fatima Mohamed Fawzy, Senior Manager – Education & Sustainability, Doha Design District, Msheireb Properties. 'By embedding science-based decarbonisation across our entire portfolio, we are not only setting a bold new benchmark for climate leadership in the region, but also demonstrating what is possible when innovation, transparency, and collaboration come together. This milestone reflects our long-term commitment to driving measurable climate action in the built environment and highlights the impact of working with forward-thinking partners like Cundall.' Gary Dodds, Partner and Country Director, Qatar added, 'We are proud to support Msheireb Properties on this pioneering journey. This is not just about upgrading buildings, it's about reshaping what sustainable development looks like in Qatar. By taking a portfolio-wide view, we're helping deliver meaningful change that aligns with both local goals and global expectations.' Mario Saab, Director of Sustainability MENA commented, 'By taking a data-led, science-aligned approach to portfolio decarbonisation, Msheireb Properties is setting a new standard for sustainable development in the region – one that others can learn from and follow.' Carbon accounting marks the first step in Msheireb Properties decarbonisation roadmap, that accounts for direct building and indirect emissions. Each building has been assessed against Cundall's Seven Steps to Net Zero Carbon, with detailed action plans developed to reduce operational energy consumption through priority upgrades to mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems, Cundall explained. Comprehensive energy audits were conducted across all building typologies to evaluate current performance and identify high-impact, cost-effective energy-saving opportunities. The wider decarbonisation plan also addresses elements such as sustainable procurement, supply chain engagement, waste management, and policy enhancement. Each asset received a performance rating and had measures identified as part of their tailored pathway to Net Zero carbon. As part of its leadership in carbon transparency, Msheireb Properties will now be able to provide granular emissions data to tenants – supporting their own decarbonisation goals and enabling alignment with international sustainability frameworks.

6 GCC wellness retreats within a three-hour flight of Dubai
The residents will attest – Dubai never sleeps. While that means that the city is always pulsating with vibrant, lively energy, creating opportunities for everyone, it also means that slowing down is perhaps a little out of reach. Everyone needs a moment to step back, slow down, disconnect and recharge, and summer is the perfect time for that. These GCC wellness retreats located just a short three-hour flight (or less) away will give you just what you need to relax and rejuvenate. Our Habitas Ras Abrouq, Qatar Our Habitas Ras Abrouq is situated on the Arabian Gulf at the edge of the UNESCO-protected Al-Reem Biosphere Reserve, and offers a slice of dune-laden, Qatari coastline you need to see to believe. With a wide range of villas draped in raw, rustic look and feel, this is one spot you can go to and completely disconnect from city life. While there, you'll be immersed in nature, exploring the sand with their safari experience, eating at their farm-to-table restaurant and living the best of the Qatari music, art and cultural scene. Of course, wellness is a vital part of the Our Habitas brand, and here you'll find tailor-made experiences. @habitasrasabrouq Alila Hinu Bay, Oman Alila Hinu Bay offers the perfect coastal escape just one-hour away from Salalah Airport.

The best way to get around is on an electric bike, and there's something truly freeing about whizzing through the valley that way (although there's buggies too for those looking to give their legs a rest). From yoga and mindfulness, to date seed body scrubs and herbal aromatherapy, Thuraya focuses on centuries-old practices to help clear the path to self-discovery and awaken focus on both our physical and energetic bodies. @habitasalula Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara, Oman Located on the stunning southern coast of Oman, on the lush land of Salalah, Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara is the getaway to Oman, especially in the khareef season – a time travellers from around the world seek out, when the mountain town turns from a desert landscape into a cold, green paradise.
