Collaboration during COVID-19 
 

The Kingdom of Bahrain demonstrated extraordinary efforts in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, with partnerships and collaborations playing a pivotal role, both in establishing communication channels between government ministries to address healthcare needs, and actively engaging in international partnerships, for example, dispatching doctors to support other healthcare systems and exchanging strategies with the United Kingdom, Italy, and Germany.


Development and Humanitarian Assistance 
  

Bahrain plays a role in providing humanitarian assistance globally, with the Royal Humanitarian Foundation (RHF) and the Bahrain Red Crescent Society being major organizations involved. For example, the RHF has been active in providing aid across the world, including assisting Syrian refugees in Jordan and responding to floods in Pakistan.

The Government has established impactful partnerships with various UN entities such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the International Labour Organization (ILO) for specific projects. Furthermore, the UN Strategic and Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) provides a comprehensive, long-term framework for achieving sustainable development in the Kingdom, through partnership with the UN agencies operating on the ground, in four key priority areas: Environment, energy, and food; quality and comprehensive social services; Economic diversification, public administration, and resilience; and Bahrain among nations.
