Bahrain is committed to providing citizens with wide-ranging services, including education, healthcare, and social and legal protection, through national programs aimed at improving living standards.

This was emphasised by Council of Representatives Speaker Ahmed bin Salman Al Musallam as he delivered yesterday the Kingdom of Bahrain’s national address at the 150th Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) in Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan,

Meaningful contribution

In his speech, Al Musallam also emphasised the Kingdom’s commitment to integrating persons with disabilities into all aspects of life, ensuring equal access to rehabilitation, care, and opportunities for meaningful contribution to social development.

The assembly, held under the theme “Parliamentary action for social development and justice,” highlighted the importance of parliaments in advancing the social dimension of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Al Musallam conveyed the greetings of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to the assembly, reaffirming Bahrain’s commitment to inclusive social development and economic empowerment.

He emphasised that the Kingdom, under the leadership of the King and supported by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, continues to prioritise social protection for vulnerable groups and strives to ensure their active participation in national development.

The Speaker also expressed pride in Bahrain’s role in promoting tolerance and peaceful coexistence, referencing the UN General Assembly’s declaration of January 28 as the International Day of Peaceful Coexistence, an initiative originally proposed by Bahrain.

This designation reflects the civilisational vision of HM King Hamad and Bahrain’s global leadership in fostering a peaceful, inclusive society
