The Partners-Jordan Organisation (PJ) launched the inclusive education program, funded by the World Bank and the Global Partnership for Social Accountability, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education to improve inclusive education in communities.

“The partnership program agreements are expected to enhance the participation of NGOs at the national level in areas of policy and performance measurement and enrich the education development agenda at the national and local levels.” said Minister of Education and Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Mohammad Abu Qudais.

He added that the project will also contribute to boosting the capacities of Jordanian civil society organisations to support inclusive education, planning and improving education policies in cooperation with key stakeholders in the education sector, building their capacity to support the design, implementation, and evaluation of school improvement plans, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

It will also provide recommendations and practical solutions to enhance existing methods through the constructive methodology in education, aiming to raise the quality of education for Jordanian and non-Jordanian children.

PJ Chairperson Reem Badran said that this project seeks to build civil society organisations’ capacity and advocate for constructive solutions to strengthen the existing mechanisms.
