AMMAN — The Minister of Environment Ibrahim Shahahdeh and Director of the Children’s Museum Jordan Sawsan Dalaq on Tuesday signed a cooperation agreement to raise awareness on waste-management practices among children.

The aim of the cooperation project is to address the random disposal of waste, especially among children, according to a statement that was sent to The Jordan Times. Fund Director Shatha Sharif said the agreement will help raise awareness on the importance of preserving the environment with children.

The project was financed by the Environment Protection Fund to support educational projects on environmental issues, the ministry’s statement underlined. An educational plan will be developed jointly under the agreement, with tools and dedicated facilitators or teachers, as well as interactive field activities for children, such as the ministry’s EcoChamp application.
