Government of Jordan

Published purpose

This project supports Jordan’s Ministry of Education in implementing its commitment to ensure that every child in Jordan receives a formal education, regardless of their nationality. Along with other donors, Canada's contribution seeks to cover the additional costs of providing formal education for Syrian children, thereby protecting the futures of hundreds of thousands of vulnerable refugee girls and boys. As with all pooled-fund projects, Canada is working in close cooperation with other donors and the Government of Jordan to promote effective, transparent, and accountable country systems; increase donor coordination and harmonization; and strengthen mutual accountability. This project also fosters greater policy dialogue among donors, government, and partners, which helps to strengthen efforts for effective, focussed aid, and long-term development results. This project is continuously monitored and evaluated in coordination with other donors. This is one of two parts (project numbers D003790001 and D003790003) of the Scaling Up Access to Formal Education for Syrian Girls and Boys project, which has a total budget of $16 million.
