On the 30th of November 2019, the graduation ceremony of 44 youth scholars celebrated the completion of their journey at Ruwwad. The Enrichment Program focuses on dialogue, wellness and business skills to enhance critical thinking, open-mindedness and respect for diversity and pluralism. Graduates were honoured for their achievements and contributions   as they confirmed  their commitment to community service, volunteerism and civic engagement.

To raise awareness about the importance of education and child labor and its impact on education and health, a new partnership with the International Labour Organization (ILO) was launched under the title “Child Labor Prevention Project” in May 2019. The project aims to get children back to school and provide vocational training opportunities to their parents.

Through this regional initiative, over 1,500 youth, women and people with disabilities in Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt are learning new technologies that will help them engage with their communities and participate more actively in social, economic and political life.
