Derasat Center and the United Nations Development Programme published two research papers titled, “The Impact of COVID-19 on Women in Bahrain”, and “Bahraini Women and Remote Work”; prepared by Dr. Omar Ahmed Al-Ubaydli, Derasat Director of Studies and Research, and Ms. Deema Al-Moayyed, UNDP researcher. Both papers derived their conclusions from surveying the opinions of 350 working mothers on hybrid work between home and office, and the outcomes of a focus group discussion on the social and psychological impacts they endured from social distancing, and crucial forms of support they need to maintain optimal work-life balance.
