Moreover, the Community Empowerment Project (Siraj Campaign) was launched in partnership with the Open Society Foundation in September 2019. The project aims to improve community-based protection practices and provide life-changing legal and administrative assistance to children and families of refugees and host communities in the East Amman suburbs. Ruwwad recruited 15 Community Facilitators and built their paralegal, psychosocial and community organizing capacity, in preparation for their work inside the communities of Jabal Al Natheef and Al Mareekh. To date, the community facilitators conducted five learning circles with 155 men and women, contributed to improving the community-based protection practices and referred 27 cases to professional legal assistance in cooperation with the Justice Center for Legal Aid.
