Abstract

Women in Bahrain have not historically been given equal rights to their male counterparts (Wang, Lindenfors, Sundström, Jansson, & Lindberg, 2012).  While recent decades have seen an increase in the areas in which equality for females is being improved, such initiatives have not reached the level of ensuring the ability of women to contribute meaningfully to the Bahraini community outside of the home (Moghadam, 2016).  This has created a situation in which women, even those with high levels of education, are unable to fully reach their potential to have meaningful impact on the country (Moghadam, Explaining divergent outcomes of the Arab Spring: The significance of gender and women’s mobilizations, 2016).
