Bahrain has called for stronger Arab unity and deeper investment in youth empowerment as countries across the region mark Arab Youth Day on Saturday. The annual occasion is seen as a chance to recognise young people’s role in shaping the region’s future.

Minister of Youth Affairs Rawan bint Najeeb Tawfiqi said the Kingdom is guided by the vision of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and the directives of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister. She noted that youth form the core of any true renaissance and are essential to sustainable national progress.

“All institutions in Bahrain are working to create an environment where young people can realise their full potential and contribute meaningfully to society,” the minister said.

Tawfiqi also highlighted the leadership of His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, HM the King’s Representative for Humanitarian Work and Youth Affairs. She credited his youth-driven vision and programmes for unlocking innovation, leadership, and social responsibility across Bahrain and the Arab world.

The minister called for closer Arab coordination to align policies, share knowledge, and foster a new generation equipped to lead with confidence and vision. She expressed pride in Bahraini and Arab youth who are committed to building communities, serving others, and advancing their nations.
