The project shall support the targeted district to increase access to education for both host communities and IDPs. This project is targeting 2,740 school aged children, (Females 1,307 and Males 1,433) amongst this caseload is 20% of the Host community school aged children who make up exactly 218 Females and 239 Males.
The project is composed of a number of activities that aim to support and promote access to education for the targeted children in Al-abr district. These activities are mainly consisting of three (3) activities as shown below: 
1-	Provide awareness sessions and outreach activities -  this will be conducted at Gharan Alshamali IDP camp and Manfad Alwadia IDP camp with a total target of 2,740 children

3-	Provide students with supplies learning materials (stationary, school bags) -  this will be conducted at Gharan Alshamali IDP camp and Manfad Alwadia IDP camp with a total target of 2,740 children

The project activities will target two (2) collective sites at  Al-abr district, namely the Gharan Alshamali IDP camp and Manfad Alwadia IDP camp. Whereas the establishing of new classrooms and WASH facilities will be conducted at one public school (Al-Wadeaa School) that is of close proximity to one of the targeted IDP camps namely nearby Manfad Al-Wadeaa  IDP camp in Al-abr district. This expansion for the classrooms aims to contribute in mitigating the need of accommodating students who are not enrolled at the school due to limitation in classes. The established classes as well include furniture and boards, hence a ready environment to enroll students and initiate learning programs. The assessment conducted by BCHR in Al-abr district has identified large numbers of children at IDP camps who couldn’t be enrolled at the schools due to lack of education capacities at the designated schools nearby their camps. These schools lack furniture (desks) and classes as well as WASH facilities to accommodate the growing need of the residing population in addition to the displaced population in the district.
Moreover, this project shall support and promote the children and their families in ensuring continuity of the education programs, good attendance and higher enrollment rates at the education facilities in the district. This will be achieved by the awareness programs that shall advocate for the continuity for the education process and encourage the families to send their children to schools, as well as facilitating the means of enrollment through the provision of school supplies, and rehabilitation of the existing education facilities to accommodate the targeted population.  
The activities will be implemented in coordination with Office of Education on district level as well as with governorate level to ensure proper implementation and good results. BCHR, will implement the activities through professional staff with more experience in humanitarian activities and emergencies. The team will monitor all activities and shall give priority to the families of the beneficiaries when it comes to recruitment or labor workers who could be involved during implementation of activities.
