SDG 11.2.1

Public access to buildings 

 

SDG 11 aims to promote sustainable cities and communities, including public access to buildings that are of cultural, historical, or social significance.  The university has this social significance as it has won several awards for its building decorations during the Bahraini National Day celebrations. The university’s buildings are decorated with colorful lights and traditional Bahraini motifs, making them a popular attraction during the annual celebrations.

The university’s efforts in decorating its buildings have been recognized by the Bahraini government, which has awarded the university several times for its outstanding contribution to the National Day celebrations. These awards highlight the university’s commitment to promoting Bahraini culture and traditions, and its role as a key institution in the country’s social and cultural fabric. The university provides access to its buildings free of charge, allowing members of the public to visit and explore the campus. This ensures that individuals have access to the university’s facilities and resources and promotes community engagement.

Moreover, the university has implemented measures to ensure that its buildings are accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. The university has installed ramps, elevators, and other accessibility features to ensure that its buildings are accessible to all.
