At its core, the program is built on the values of sustainability, competitiveness, and fairness. These principles shape the government’s approach across all sectors, ensuring development initiatives are implemented to the highest standards. The aim is to position Bahrain as a regional leader in innovation and progress, guided by a spirit of teamwork as coined by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa “We relish a challenge and have a passion for achievement.”
The program places citizens at the centre of all development efforts, addressing their evolving aspirations and focusing on enhancing the quality and sustainability of public services; integrating modern technologies; protecting the environment and natural resources; and promoting inclusive and comprehensive development.
To realise these goals, the government is fostering strong collaboration with the legislative and executive branches and expanding partnerships with the private sector.
Strategic Priorities
The Government Program (2023–2026) is centered on four key strategic priorities, each aimed at delivering prosperity, security, and improved quality of life:
1. Raising citizens' standard of living while preserving their gains.
2. Fairness, security, and stability.
3. Economic recovery and sustainable development.
4. Quality and competitive government services.
Thematic Pillars
These priorities are further advanced through six thematic focus areas:
• Improving the Standard of Living
• Sovereignty and Legislation
• Infrastructure and Environment
• Economic Recovery and Financial Sustainability
• Community Services
• Government Performance and Digital Transformation
This comprehensive program was shaped by the outcomes of the “Future Aspirations” workshops, which brought together representatives from across government to ensure alignment between planning and implementation. The same teams involved in shaping the program are leading its execution—ensuring continuity, accountability, and shared purpose.
