We love being creative: Our Story

Founded in 2001, the International Academy for Intercultural Development (IAID) WLL has established itself as Qatar’s premier center for cultivating talent and fostering creative excellence. With a commitment to promoting passion, pride, and positivity, IAID stands as the leading Performing Arts Academy in the country, offering comprehensive training in Dance, Music, and Arts. IAID's inclusive approach has welcomed over 1,200 students from more than 80 nationalities, creating a vibrant and diverse community of artists.

Distinguished as the first institute of its kind in the region, IAID has set the standard for performing arts education. The academy's dedication to excellence has been recognized consistently, earning it a place in the Top 50 SMEs in QDB's Excellence List in 2016, 2018, and 2022. Through a combination of exceptional artistic training, a team of dedicated professionals, and courses that adhere to international standards, IAID is committed to transforming the creative lives of its community.

Endorsed as Category A by the Ministry of Culture, IAID boasts affiliations with prestigious institutions worldwide. With a registered office in the UK, IAID's global presence extends beyond Qatar's borders. This international footprint is further amplified through affiliations with prestigious institutions worldwide, including the London College of Music, University of West London (UK), British Theatre Dance Association (UK), Nalanda Dance Research Center (India), and Asia Pacific Dance Association (New Zealand) ensure that IAID students receive world-class training and opportunities for artistic growth.

In response to the challenges posed by the pandemic, IAID swiftly adapted its offerings, launching IAID Click to provide online classes.
