Rawan bint Najeeb Tawfiqi, Minister of Youth Affairs, inaugurated the Youth 365 space at the Hamad Town Model Youth Centre, managed by the Youth City Authority. The initiative aims to enhance the presence of Bahraini youth internationally and enable them to benefit from global programmes and opportunities offered through embassies and international missions in the Kingdom.
Minister Tawfiqi said that Youth 365 reflects the ministry’s commitment to providing an encouraging environment for Bahraini youth to engage with international programmes and events. She explained that the space is a practical model for integrating national and international efforts in youth development.
Through Youth 365, Bahraini youth will be able to access international opportunities, build cooperation with embassies, diplomatic missions, and international institutions, and connect with members of the Hope Network, all of which enhance their skills and advance the Kingdom of Bahrain’s role in supporting youth.
The Youth Minister added that Youth 365 combines knowledge, experience, and expertise transfer, serving as a hub linking Bahraini youth with the world. She noted that it opens new avenues for them to engage with global cultures and experiences and to represent Bahrain internationally, reflecting the Kingdom’s vision of investing in youth as a development pillar and foundation for future leadership.
She highlighted that the space will also be a platform to share international experiences and showcase Bahraini success stories, marking an important step in reinforcing the Kingdom's position as a country that supports and empowers youth regionally and internationally.
Youth 365 aims to familiarise Bahraini youth with international training and programme opportunities, encourage active participation, highlight inspiring success stories, and provide an interactive area for cultural, educational, and training initiatives, enhancing their skills and readiness for the future.
The programme is built around five core values: Empowerment, inspiration, innovation, participation, and hope, reflecting the Ministry’s vision to support young Bahrainis and strengthen their contribution to sustainable national development.
