Nour Educational Program
Established in 2013, the Nour Project was initiated to address the educational gaps for recently arrived refugee children and families in Burj El Barajneh. A 2017-18 survey revealed that a significant percentage, ranging from 50-60%, of Syrian children in Lebanon were not enrolled in schools. These families, often carrying tales of war and displacement, urgently require safe and supportive spaces within their host communities, and the Nour Project was conceived with this imperative in mind.
