The Goodwill Ambassador praised the recent effort taken by Her Highness Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser Al- Missnad through which Qatar was continued with championing the actions to improve the lives of autism sufferers by co-hosting an awareness-raising conference with the United Nations on the sidelines of the annual meeting of world leaders in New York recently.
