Hello it has been a while, with last weeks flooding I took some time not to post about Her Majesty's visit to the bereaved family and respect her visit.

Today Her Majesty Queen Rania chaired the Jordan River Foundation's annual Board of Trustees meeting. The meeting focused on the foundation’s major achievements this year and its strategy for the next year. The meeting was held at the Queen Rania Family and Child center (QRFCC) in Jabl Al Nasr

The board meeting began with a presentation by JRF Director General, Enaam Barrishi, who updated Her Majesty on the progress of the foundation’s key programs: the Jordan River Community Empowerment Program (JRCEP), the Jordan River Child Safety Program (JRCSP), and Jordan River Designs.

In 2018, JRF implemented a number of initiatives aiming to increase employment among its beneficiaries, partnering with local and international organizations to support the launch of hundreds of income-generating micro and small enterprises in Jordan.

The meeting also addressed the status of JRF’s various handicrafts projects, including the foundation’s recent partnership with IKEA, which has created jobs for Jordanian women and Syrian refugees. Barrishi also shared JRF’s expansion plans for 2019, under which the foundation aims to extend its community empowerment and child safety programs across the kingdom.

Following the meeting, the Queen visited Al Karma Kitchen, where she met with a number of full-time female chefs trained by JRF. Established in 2006, Al Karma Kitchen offers a wide variety of catering services and food products, generating unique economic opportunities for the women of East Amman.

Al Karma Kitchen was recently relocated from Jabal al Natheef to a larger facility in Jabal al Nasr to accommodate its expanding product lines and increased production volume. The Kitchen’s offerings now include 11 authentic Arab frozen food items, sold at select stores across Amman.

Her Majesty earlier today attended the launch of a festival organized by the National Council for Family Affairs (NCFA) and UNICEF Jordan, as part of a wider ongoing campaign in Jordan to reduce physical violence against children. The festival theme was “The Adventures of Looney Balloony,”

Her Majesty was welcomed at the event by NCFA Acting Secretary General, Mohammad Miqdadi, UNICEF Jordan Representative, Robert Jenkins, and Chief of Child Protection Program at UNICEF, Maha Homsi.

The festival was launched in consultation with children and adults from different segments of Jordanian society. Its focus on positive dialogue and child rearing approaches, the festival will feature eight cartoon characters to introduce children, their parents, and caregivers to the tools and skills needed for healthy child development.

Each of the eight characters is representative of a positive skill that parents can utilize when dealing with their children. The skills include communicating, practicing patience, showing love, listening, encouraging, role modeling, and understanding the nuances of child development.

During the festival, Her Majesty tour by an outdoor exhibition displaying the stories of thirty violence survivors, and the activation area, where children can communicate the positive traits they would like to see in their parents.

Speaking on behalf of UNICEF, Jenkins said that Jordan continues to be the leader on child rights issues in the region, underscoring the Queen’s efforts as UNICEF’s first Eminent Advocate for Children in launching “Ma’An” in 2009 to address violence and abuse.

Expressing UNICEF’s support for the national strategy in ending violence against children, Jenkins added that,“NCFA’s leadership and the active role of ministries and the civil society, including media, has helped roll out a homebased strategy that takes into consideration social and cultural norms and focuses on positive parenting and the involvement of family members and children in ending the violence”.
