The Role of the Ministry of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture in Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
In alignment with the Kingdom of Bahrain’s firm commitment to the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and in support of the Government Action Plan (2023–2026), the Ministry of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture has actively contributed to the realization of relevant SDGs within its mandate and areas of responsibility, as outlined below:
SDG 2 – Zero Hunger
Objective:
End hunger, ensure food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture.
Relevant Targets:
2.3: By 2030, double the agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers—especially women, Indigenous peoples, family farmers, pastoralists, and fishers—by ensuring secure access to land, productive resources, knowledge, financial services, markets, value-added opportunities, and non-agricultural employment.
2.4: By 2030, ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and yield, preserve ecosystems, and enhance climate adaptation capacity, particularly in response to extreme weather and land degradation.
2.5: By 2030, maintain genetic diversity of seeds, cultivated plants, and farmed/domesticated animals through well-managed seed banks at national, regional, and global levels, and ensure fair and equitable benefit-sharing from the use of genetic resources and traditional knowledge.
Key Achievements:
Provision of agricultural consultancy services to 24 farms, with regular monitoring of local production performance.
Implementation of a national training program for over 900 Bahrainis, aiming to empower farmers with advanced techniques and climate resilience strategies.
Allocation of state-owned agricultural lands through the Government Land Investment Platform launched in 2022.
Launch of the following strategic initiatives:
I1O4 – Epidemiological Surveillance and Animal Disease Control Program
I3O4 – Private Sector Investment Land Rehabilitation for Animal Production
I4O4 – Legislative Reform for the Animal Sector
I4O8 – Legislative Reform for Water Resource Management
I3O8 – Establishment of a Genetic Resource Bank
I7O8 – Agricultural Land Reclamation Initiative
I5O8 – Comprehensive Groundwater Well Survey
SDG 6 – Clean Water and Sanitation
Objective:
Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.
