Where we work
The Agency expects to concentrate on the Arab world, East Africa, and South and Southeast Asia — the regions where Bahrain has the longest commercial and diplomatic relationships to build on.
Arab states
The closest institutional relationships, and a shared language that makes technical cooperation practical rather than mediated.
East Africa
Long-standing trade across the western Indian Ocean, and a concentration of need in water and primary health.
South and Southeast Asia
The origin of much of the resident workforce in the Gulf, and a region where skills and financial inclusion programmes show a direct return.
Partner countries have not been announced
Country programmes will be listed here as agreements are signed, each with its sector, instrument, value and status. Until an agreement exists there is nothing honest to put on a map.
