With the spread of COVID-19, Jordan took the quick decision to implement a lockdown but to continue with education, albeit delivering its content remotely. The Ministry of Education (MoE) developed a quick response plan to provide a sense of normalcy for students as well as prevent the risk of students dropping out due to interruption in learning. This report outlines the MoE response to COVID-19 in Jordan, and builds on this response to visualize a roadmap for important interventions on the short, medium, and long terms. This roadmap is visualized based on emerging global resources during the pandemic and knowledge from education in emergency situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This report draws on the results of a larger multi-year study on the trajectories from education to employment for refugees and nationals in Lebanon and Jordan, a collaboration between the Centre for Lebanese Studies at the Lebanese American University in Beirut and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookes.ac.uk\/architecture\/research\/cendep\/\">Centre for Development and Emergency Practice<\/a>, Oxford Brookes University, with the support of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idrc.ca\/\">IDRC<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gtr.ukri.org\/projects?ref=ES%2FS004742%2F1\">ESRC\/UKRI<\/a>, and LERRN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Download the full report: <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/250\/education-in-the-time-of-covid19-in-jordan.pdf\">Education in the Time of Covid-19 in Jordan<\/a> (PDF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Centre for Lebanese Studies, with the support of LERRN, has released a new report on how education for refugees and nationals in Jordan has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and making recommendations for future responses.
