The strengthening and consolidation of the national identity is the cornerstone and the basis. Rather, it has become the main concern of countries in the relentless pursuit of the identity of the country, especially between the youth category by focusing on their national affiliation, and this is what made His Highness Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa such as His Majesty the Humanitarian Affairs and Youth Affairs and Chairman of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports directs to establish the “Oud House” body, as a national initiative aimed at establishing the original Bahraini values And strengthening the cultural identity among young people. In fact, this step comes as an affirmation of his vision and his keenness in building a generation aware of his identity and history is able to continue the march of development with a spirit of belonging and pride. The national identity is not just slogans that are raised, but rather an integrated system of values, customs, language and common history that nourishes the spirit of loyalty and belonging to the soil and leadership of this country.
“The Oud House” is the name that gives us the impression that it is the big house that brings us together as Bahrainis under one roof, and this body that will be created aims to revive the Bahraini heritage and be a platform that embraces the creativity of young people and gives it the space to express his love for the homeland by creating an environment motivated by community participation by integrating the past with the present and inspiring the young generation to contribute to preserving the national identity that may impose the challenges that may impose it Globalization, this initiative is what His Highness Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa believes in the role of the pivotal youth in building the future, which will only be achieved by relying on solid foundations of the values of loyalty and belonging according to a sustainable approach in building their national identity as the link that unites the people of the one homeland and gives them a sense of belonging and responsibility.
We in Bahrain have an ancient history and a rich heritage is what made us start from it in pride in the national identity that came from a past hitting its roots in the depths of authentic Arab history. The idea came to create the “oud house” as a national platform that strives to deepen the awareness of the youth with their roots and nourish their feeling of pride and belonging in the country of history, tolerance and coexistence, which is an opportunity to return them to the roots and inspire the values that formed the features of Bahrain throughout history.
The whisper of the “oud house”, an initiative aimed at strengthening national unity and the formulation of an integrated Bahraini personal that combines originality and contemporary. The national identity is not only a past, but the future we build with originality, pride and pride.
