As part of its commitment to corporate social responsibility and fostering community engagement, stc Bahrain, a digital enabler, has launched the "Fereej Majlises" initiative under its community program "stc Fereej". The initiative aims to revive the role of traditional Majlises in reinforcing social ties and preserving Bahrain’s cultural heritage.
Majlis gatherings have long been an integral part of Bahraini culture, serving as spaces for individuals to come together, exchange news, and strengthen relationships. Through this initiative, stc Bahrain reaffirms its dedication to preserving this rich tradition, enhancing local neighborhoods, and fostering a sense of belonging within the community.
stc Bahrain will renovate Majlises in various governorate areas, offering welcoming spaces for neighbors to gather and socialize in one of the houses that has a Majlis available. The initiative aims to reach all categories of society, providing a space to come together and keep the traditional and local culture alive.
Shaikh Zeyad Al Khalifa, the Chief Government Affairs Officer at stc Bahrain, said: “At stc Bahrain, we believe that strong communities are the foundation of a thriving society, and we are committed to supporting the government’s vision to create a sustainable and stable local community and to develop neighborhoods’ growth and prosperity. By providing these welcoming spaces, we hope to strengthen the bonds that unite us and contribute to the preservation of Bahraini cultural traditions.”
stc Bahrain's ‘Fereej’ program encompasses a wide range of initiatives designed to support and empower local communities in Bahrain, including providing educational opportunities, healthcare services, and home renovations to underprivileged families. The launch of Fereej Majlises further demonstrates stc Bahrain's commitment to creating a positive and lasting impact on the Bahraini society.
