With the support of the Japanese government and in cooperation with PARCIC, URDA’s healthcare sector has launched its new project, “COVID-19 Prevention Measures for Syrian Refugees and the Lebanese Host Community in Aarsal Schools”.
This project aims to assist schools in implementing COVID-19 prevention measures following the guidelines dictated by the Ministry of Public Health as well as the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, thereby reducing the spread of COVID-19 and leading to the gradual return to traditional face-to-face education, through the distribution of hygiene supplies and protective equipment to students and schools, in addition to conducting awareness sessions to school staff and students. Under this project, a number of awareness-raising sessions have been provided to approximately 140 individuals in Al Nour school.
