The Media Majlis Museum

The Media Majlis Museum at Northwestern University in Qatar is the first media museum in the Arab world. It is dedicated to journalism, communication, media, and art, exploring how media shapes global, regional, and local stories.

Through exhibitions, programmes, publications, and digital resources, the museum engages visitors with contemporary media issues. Its interactive spaces use digital technologies to present multiple perspectives and encourage critical thinking.

Open since 2019, the museum has hosted exhibitions and programmes on topics such as Arab identity in film, media and social change, and the impact of smartphones on journalism.

Located in Education City, the museum forms part of Northwestern University in Qatar’s educational mission. It is open to the public and provides a space for learning, reflection, and engagement for residents and visitors alike.
