Bahrain Participates in Key Arab Space Cooperation Meeting in Egypt

The Kingdom of Bahrain, represented by aerospace engineer Youssef Al Qattan from the Bahrain Space Agency, took part in the 11th meeting of the Arab Space Cooperation Group and the 4th "New Space Africa" conference. The events were hosted by the sisterly Arab Republic of Egypt and saw wide participation from space sector experts across the Arab world and internationally. Dr. Mohammed Ibrahim Al-Osairi, CEO of the Bahrain Space Agency, highlighted the importance of young Bahraini talent attending international conferences. He explained that involving young nationals in such forums is a key part of the agency's strategy to develop human capital. "Empowering our young people means giving them opportunities to represent Bahrain on global stages and to contribute to knowledge-based decision making," he said. Dr. Al-Osairi expressed pride in engineer Youssef Al Qattan's representation of Bahrain at the conference, which attracted many space agencies and industry leaders from around the world. "These opportunities showcase the new Bahraini generation's ability to engage with global challenges and offer innovative ideas in a vital sector like space. We will continue to support our national talents to be active players in regional and international space efforts." Engineer Youssef Al Qattan thanked both the Bahrain Space Agency and the National Center for Space Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi for nominating him. He emphasized how important such initiatives are for empowering distinguished young Arabs in the space field. "I am proud to represent Bahrain at this important scientific event. It gave me a valuable chance to learn about African countries' experiences in space and to explore youth-led initiatives in this field. Speaking about the Arab Satellite Project 813 allowed me to highlight the role of Arab youth in joint space programs and the importance of building scientific projects based on cooperation between nations. This experience is unforgettable, and I will share what I learned with my colleagues and the youth of Bahrain." The Bahrain Space Agency is committed to supporting and developing young national talents by nominating them for international events, conferences, and specialized training programs. This is part of the agency's strategic vision to build a sustainable and integrated space sector in Bahrain based on national expertise.
