EWTN BROADCASTED A SPECIAL ON THE PROJECT THAT PROMOTES ENROLMENT AND THE CREATION OF A SUITABLE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT FOR REFUGEES AND VULNERABLE CHILDREN
Funded by the EU Regional Trust Fund ‘Madad’, the project ‘Back to the Future’ is operated by a consortium of NGOs: AVSI Foundation, Terre des Hommes Italy, Terre des Hommes Netherlands and War Child Holland. Over a three-year period (2016-2019), it will enable more than 21,700 Syrian, Lebanese and Jordanian children to go to school.
The aim of this project is to restore children’s hope in the future, by reaching out to them and helping them attend school, providing assistance. The activities vary from early childhood education to basic literacy and accounting, foreign language support, homework support and remedial classes.
