AMMAN — UN Women Jordan, in partnership with the Asian Football Development Project (AFDP) and Search for Common Ground, is holding a series of community football activities targeting girls in Jordan, according to an AFDP statement released Wednesday.
The project aims to bring Syrian refugees and host communities together while also empowering girls and developing their skills for peaceful conflict resolution through physical education and football.
Throughout the 12-month collaboration, there will be three-day football camps and one-day football tournaments to be carried out in Mafraq, Irbid and Ramtha, providing safe spaces for young Syrians and Jordanians to interact.
