CELEBRATING CULTURAL DIVERSITY AT THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BAHRAIN

Expanding on the success of its community-wide events, the American University of Bahrain (AUBH) is hosting its Annual International Day on 11 March. The event celebrates “One World, Diverse Nations” highlighting two of the University’s values: diversity and inclusivity.

During the gala, the campus will become a melting pot of diverse cultures through AUBH’s student body and experiences in the Kingdom of Bahrain, through gastronomy, music, language, and art. In addition to the international exhibit of world cultures, the day-long event will be activities such as a traditional costume parade, an international food court, games, live performances, and a photo booth.

“We are honoured by the patronage of His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, as he represents the values that are the essence of the

AUBH International Day. We are also proud to have a diverse community here at AUBH representing 23 nationalities. We cannot wait to welcome guests from all over Bahrain on the 11th of March,” said Dr Bradley J. Cook, AUBH President.

The countries participating this year include Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, the United States of America, Germany, France, Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, South Korea, India, Africa, Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine.

The event underscores the confidence, tolerance, positive thinking, and communication skills necessary for a lifetime of success, and to maximize the impact of this student-centric initiative, this event is open to the public. All embassies, charities, nongovernmental organisations, and food and beverage vendors are welcome to join the extravaganza.
