The Backbone of Our Education Centers

Our educational centers' staff are what create the magic in the classrooms. Being mostly displaced Syrians themselves, they are able to achieve and provide education beyond the academic curriculum and the boundaries of the classrooms.

Bourj Hammoud Center

Nabaa, Bourj Hammoud, Beirut, Lebanon

Jusoor’s educational center in Beirut opened in June 2013 as the first center of the organization in Lebanon to run our pilot program. The facility was generously donated to Jusoor by Al-Makassed, a large philanthropic association in Lebanon. Since then we moved to the Nabaa area where we are currently stationed. The Bourj Hammoud Center teaches Arabic as a second language to Syrian refugees from Northern Syria.

Jurahiya Center

Jurahiya Camp, Al-Marj, Middle Bekaa, Lebanon

The Jurahiya Center which is located inside a camp for displaced Syrians started operation in February 2014 in tented classrooms. It was converted in 2018 into an eco-friendly educational center. The center creates an opportunity to bring positive change to education and social life starting with students at only three years of age. Within the surrounding community, the Jurahiya center aims to improve the learning environment and cultivate community cohesion within the Jurahiya Informal Tented Settlement (ITS) and the host Lebanese community.
