NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS – Heads of Mission of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas visited several schools around the country to educate students on the role of the Bahamian Foreign Service on the world stage during a Speaking Tour of Grand Bahama, Andros, Abaco, Cat Island and Eleuthera.

The Speaking Tour is one of the activities organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration (MOFAI) in recognition of the 2nd Annual Diplomatic Week, October 18-24, and serves as a forum to strengthen and deepen bilateral and multilateral relations with some 70 countries. The special week also provides an effective arena to extend The Bahamas’ campaign for election to the United Nations’ Human Rights Council and re-election to the International Maritime Organization.

The theme for this week is “Diplomacy: Positioning for the Future Toward New Approaches, Tools and Methods for Implementing New Goals.”
