Young Parliamentarians gain insight into Legislative

Process during Bahrain visit

By Middle East News 247 May 21, 2024

A youth delegation from the first batch of graduates of the ‘Young Parliamentarians’ program visited the

Kingdom of Bahrain to share experiences and learn about the best parliamentary practices. The visit,
organised by Watani Al Emarat Foundation and the Federal Youth Authority, in partnership with the General
Secretariat of the Shura Council, was aimed at developing participants’ leadership and political skills.

The visit served as a platform for exchanging knowledge, exploring best parliamentary practices and working
mechanisms, as well as empowering participants to reach their full potential and contribute substantially to

their communities, thereby crafting a bright future for the UAE.

The ‘Young Parliamentarians’ program was launched in early 2023 with the objective of enhancing youth

awareness and knowledge in parliamentary government activities as well as establishing a youth platform for
parliamentary action to contribute to the process of political empowerment. In addition, the initiative seeks to
encourage young people to be pioneers in parliamentary work and fortify the role of youth in the UAE in

political growth, while encouraging field scientific research and leveraging global best practices in youth
parliamentary work.
