This visit is part of the Council’s ongoing efforts to engage the community and promote parliamentary culture. By involving students in these educational experiences, the Council aims to increase awareness of parliamentary functions and the democratic process. It also seeks to prepare future generations to understand the importance of legislative and diplomatic roles in governance.

The museum highlights important historical events and national achievements.

This initiative is a significant part of the Council’s mission to involve all sectors of Bahraini society, especially schools and universities. The Council believes in the importance of promoting parliamentary culture and encouraging students to actively engage in the democratic process.
