Bahrain News: Initiative aims to promote kingdom’s rich heritage – Gulf Digital News

ALMOST 160 young Bahrainis are being trained to be ‘cultural ambassadors’ of the kingdom, as part of a national initiative to promote a sense of awe and wonder about the kingdom’s rich heritage, as well as spread awareness over the role museums have in celebrating culture. The first of two Young Tour Guide training workshops organised by the Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities (Baca) kicked off this week and if they prove a success the programme may continue to bridge a generational age gap .
