Description and results
Description
This project supports Jordan’s Ministry of Education to implement its commitment byensuring every child in Jordan receives a formal education, regardless of 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 works 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 reinforce efforts to effective, focussed aid, and long-term development results. This project is continuously monitored and evaluated in coordination with other donors.
