Obesity poses a critical public health challenge in Qatar, with prevalence rates reaching 70.1% among adults and nearly half of children affected. The Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) plays a pivotal role in addressing this epidemic through an integrated, multi-sectoral strategy aligned with the Qatar National Health Strategy 2024–2030. This paper outlines a comprehensive approach to obesity prevention and management, incorporating public awareness campaigns, school-based interventions, healthy eating initiatives, physical activity promotion, healthcare provider training, family support programs, workplace wellness initiatives, research, and policy reform. A detailed SWOT and PESTLE analysis highlights organizational strengths, available resources, and supportive national policies, while identifying barriers such as environmental constraints and sedentary lifestyles. Implementation plans emphasize cross-sector collaboration, culturally sensitive interventions, and continuous monitoring through the Health Information System. By leveraging PHCC’s extensive infrastructure, workforce, and strategic partnerships, the proposed plan aims to reduce obesity prevalence, improve health literacy, and enhance population well-being in Qatar.
