To bridge the gap for youth in Jordan especially young refugees who lack knowledge about local and global issues with the skills necessary to contribute meaningfully in building peaceful and resilient communities.
It empowers them to become proactive actors by equipping them with the knowledge, values, and practical skills of global citizenship, aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
In practice, this project offers interactive sessions, discussions, workshops on global citizenship, local and global issues, different cultures, peacebuilding, and the sustainable development goals (SDGs), as it offers a reliable and free access to different online learning opportunities with the support of the project supporters where they can further develop skills essential for global citizens step by step and sustainably.
This project draws inspiration from the personal story of its founder, Mohammad Shehadat, a young Syrian profoundly impacted by conflict. His rich and diverse experiences as an advocate for education rights, leadership, peacebuilding, and human rights activism, combined with his resilience as a refugee, serve as the foundation for this work.
Awareness campaigns have successfully engaged young people in Jordan, particularly by encouraging participation from refugees and marginalized youth, fostering their involvement in this transformative journey.
The project has been steadily gaining momentum through strong partnerships with organizations and supporters, including the Jenö Staehelin Foundation, the Kofi Annan Changemakers Initiative, LWF, and the Ban Ki-moon Centre for Global Citizens.
