Which country is hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup?
The FIFA World Cup will be held in Qatar for the first time in the Middle East in 2022. In preparation for the 2022 World Cup, Qatar has invested billions of dollars in building some of the sports venues with the most cutting-edge architecture and environmental practices, along with significant monetary and infrastructure improvements.
As the first World Cup in the northern hemisphere to not be carried in the summer, Qatar is also poised to create history. Instead, the competition is planned for late November through mid-December.
The final will take place on December 18, 2022, which also happens to be Qatar’s National Day, and will be played over a shorter period of about 28 days.
How did Qatar get to host the FIFA World Cup 2022?
By constituting its bid team in 2009, Qatar began the process of organizing the FIFA World Cup in 2022. With support from all Arab League members, Qatar marketed its hosting of the competition as displaying the Arab World.
The bid team declared the Generation Amazing football for development program as part of its goal to use the power of football to have a beneficial social impact. The program’s goal was to improve the lives of some of the most impoverished people in the world by offering specialized football instruction, building community fields, and encouraging ethical conduct.
Five contenders tabled bids for the coveted hosting rights, including Qatar, Australia, South Korea, Japan, and the United States. Following a vote by ballot by the FIFA Executive Committee in Zurich, FIFA declared on December 2, 2010, that Qatar will host the FIFA World Cup in 2022.
What are the measures taken to beat the heat in Qatar during the FIFA World Cup 2022?
Eight stadiums will organize the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Commencing in March 2010, the first five stadiums for the World Cup were revealed. It was suggested that all stadiums be furnished with and use cooling technology that can lower stadium temperatures by up to 20°C (36°F).
In answer to dissent that the country’s climate would be too intense throughout the summer in the northern hemisphere when the FIFA World Cup is typically carried, the strategy to employ cooling technology was initiated. In addition to stadiums, the bidding committee suggested using these innovations in fan zones, practice fields, and walkways connecting Metro stations and stadiums.
Nevertheless, the FIFA World Cup timeline was shifted to the winter months to better suit players and audiences during games. As a component of the initial proposal, it was also presented that the stadium’s top tiers be dismantled after the World Cup and donated to football advancement ventures around the world.
