Training: we provide capacity building trainings for caretakers, volunteers and parents to empower them to assist their children in their education and emotional and social development -> see the attached documentation "L.I.F.T". learning groups learn2live (Math, Arabic and Life Skills), Arab-UP (Arabic and Life Skills): we train learning facilitators from the community, equip them with materials and manuals for basic Math, Arabic and Life Skills topics in order for them to tutor 3-4 times a week groups of 10 children from their neighbourhood in their homes or in a center. The facilitators are regularly trained and supervised by NOIVA staff and get compensated for their work. Currently we do have 15 groups running in Mafraq City. Another 9 groups are planned for Jordan Valley. -> see the attached documentations "NOIVA education initiative". Peacemaker Courses/Groups: The „connect“ initiative is gathering groups all over Jordan in sessions to engage them in peacemaker topics and empower them to be the change makers and peace builders in their families, neighbourhoods and communities. It is driven by the belief, that change starts in the heart and mind of people. -> see attached document "connect" Lightup.ME Music Project: Musicians from different backgrounds and nationalities join together to write, record, publish and perform songs and music that touch people's hearts. Peace is the overall message that is encouraged melodies, instruments and words. The songs are made available to a wide audience, primarily through social media. On social media platforms, specially built for this project, an exchange between people and an opportunity to share art is created - art that speaks of the hope that the future will be better than the present - art that speaks the language of forgiveness and reconciliation and aims for peace. Events will be organized in a context where on the one hand the created songs are performed, but on the other hand also offer a platform for other artists. Listen to the first song, HOPE on https://youtu.be/MdiT70Ly0No A "concert for peace" is planned in cooperation with King Hussein Foundation and the National Music Conservatory in September 2022. Mobile Dental Clinic: Dental care is a major problem in Jordan for the poorer sections of the population, to which most refugees belong. This starts with the often unbalanced diet and the lack of oral hygiene in everyday life. When a visit to the dentist is urgently needed, money is often lacking. NOIVA Health has recognized the great need for dental treatment and built a mobile dental clinic based on a former field hospital. The fold-out container is transported by truck and brings the dentists directly to those regions where they are most urgently needed. The mobile dental clinic is running since 2019. Around 2000 dental treatments are performed annually - tooth extraction, caries treatment, root canal therapy and dental hygiene. To prevent this from happening in the future, preventive work is being carried out.
