  ABSTRACT: Key findings within basic field research in Bahrain for the actual application and exercising of gender equality and citizenship are presented in this paper. The pre-existing inequality within civil and family laws in the corresponding Bahraini Dual legal system is also discussed. This article discusses significant issues in Bahrain which are based on the Sunni-Shi’ite division which has a direct and significant effect on implementing reforms for the existing discriminatory laws. This is relevant to the important issues of gender equality and citizenship for how they debate family codes with regards to women’s rights within the corresponding legislative authority. The practical implementation and exercising of this right in Bahrain is analysed, and the political participation as women’s constitutional rights is also investigated.
