The purpose of SDGs is to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that people are equal and in peace. Also, social progress, economic growth and environmental protection. 
2. The labour fund (Tamkeen) is aiming to achieve SDGs in bahrain in its sessions. 
3. The most important goal in Bahrain is ( No poverty ), because if a country suffers from poverty, that will lead to weak education, poor health and many other basic needs. ]]> 2019-09-13 01:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/383592285 Omar Hasan Ali Sharaf 201800154 https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/384159619 1- The purpose of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to ensure a sustainable future by tackling issues that are faced globally.
2- The Ministry of Education prioritizes the development of reading skills in schools in an effort to create a knowledgeable and cultured future generation (Quality Education).
3- In my opinion the most important goal is ‘No Poverty’. Regardless of the 4.3% unemployment rate in Bahrain, the Bahrain government site states that having a job doesn’t guarantee escaping poverty due to low wages. People working in such jobs tend to neglect their health, spouse, diet etc. Causing them to develop a mental state of poverty (poverty mindset).]]> 2019-09-14 18:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/384159619 Syed Salman Shah 201600578 https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/384256169 1. The purpose of 17 SDGs is to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, prosperity, and peace and justice.
2. The national undersea cleaning campaign is to clean the sea, ports and beaches has commenced, according to officials at the Bahrain Diving Volunteer Team (BDVT) under the slogan "Our Sea is clean".
3.In my opinion the most important goal in Bahrain is '"Life Below Water", because our rainwater, drinking water, weather, climate, coastlines, much of our food, and even the oxygen in the air we breathe, are all ultimately provided and regulated by the sea. Throughout history, oceans and seas have been vital conduits for trade and transportation.]]> 2019-09-15 09:32:07 UTC https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/384256169 Salman Shams 201700601 https://padlet.com/elgin_vandewiel/recbflejmsg2/wish/384294681
