LABOUR Fund (Tamkeen) chief executive Maha Mofeez met a group of young Bahrainis participating in the ‘Rehan Al Mostaqbal’ programme, emphasising the importance of youth in the kingdom’s development.
Ms Mofeez highlighted the “critical role Bahraini youth play in driving the kingdom’s development through positive contributions, generating innovative ideas, and enhancing productivity,” according to a statement.
She also underscored Tamkeen’s commitment to “cultivate an innovative ecosystem and provide platforms for local talent to showcase their entrepreneurial ideas, as well as skill development to help advance and grow their careers.”
The meeting, organised by the Bahrain Institute for Political Development, was attended by board of trustees member Dr Ebtisam Al Dallal and executive director Eman Janahi, along with representatives from both Tamkeen and the Institute.
Discussions included an overview of Tamkeen’s key programmes aimed at facilitating youth employment and institutional growth. The dialogue allowed for an “open discussion on strategic priorities and support mechanisms that contribute to achieving core objectives.”
The event is part of the Institute’s initiative to connect emerging leaders with senior policymakers and equip them with the knowledge and tools for political engagement.
