Transportation and Telecommunications Minister and King Hamad Global Centre for Coexistence and Tolerance board of trustees chairman Dr Shaikh Abdulla bin Ahmed Al Khalifa emphasised the center’s commitment to continuing its investment in preparing new generations of young leaders to promote a culture of tolerance and understanding among peoples, in line with the vision of His Majesty King Hamad.
This came on the announcement by the centre of the opening of registration for the second cohort of the “King Hamad Leadership in Coexistence Programme,” in co-operation with UK-based institutions “Faith in Leadership” and the “1928 Institute” of the University of Oxford.
The registration begins today and will close on November 3.
The programme contributes to advancing shared human values and transferring leading global expertise to empower youth from Bahrain and the GCC states as ambassadors for spreading the message of peace.
Dr Shaikh Abdulla added that the launch of the second cohort reflects the tangible success of the first edition of the programme, and demonstrates the centre’s ongoing commitment to investing in promising youth talents.
Through partnerships with prestigious international academic institutions, the programme equips participants with advanced leadership and knowledge skills via interactive training sessions, seminars led by international experts, practical applications in dialogue and peaceful conflict resolution, and the promotion of intercultural dialogue and coexistence, qualifying them to play impactful roles in their communities and professional fields.
Coinciding with the International Day of Peace, the centre called on Bahraini and GCC youth to register for the second cohort of the programme through the centre’s official website: khgc.org.bh.
The programme offers educational and training opportunities that reinforce the values of peace and mutual understanding, further highlighting Bahrain’s role as a vibrant civilisational platform for coexistence, dialogue, and rapprochement among cultures and religions.
