Programme, achieving remarkable success.
The event was attended by Ambassador
Marianne Bolger, Mr. Mohammad Tahboub, Chairman of the Board, and a Representative from Crown Prince Foundation, emphasizing Jordan’s
commitment to STEM education.
During the exhibition, a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) was signed between Ireland’s Department of Foreign
Affairs and BTYSTE. This agreement seeks to deepen collaboration and
promote knowledge exchange in STEM education between Ireland, Jordan and other
nations.
The JoYS Programme, modelled after
BTYSTE, has engaged over 3,500 students and teachers across Jordan for the last 3 years, fostering innovation and
empowering youth through STEM. It continues to grow from strength to strength. This
remarkable achievement reflects Jordan’s growing global presence in science and
technology, driven by the dedication of its students and the strength of
international partnerships.
