Al Mujahed al-Arabi Primary School in Anbar Province has been fully rehabilitated and is now ready to welcome students. The school was severely damaged during the ISIS conflict and remained closed for several years, forcing students to attend classes in substandard, overcrowded, makeshift facilities, resulting in a decline in educational standards.
With the support of USAID, and through the Funding Facility for Stabilization program implemented by @undpiraq, the school has been restored to its preconflict state. Now with more than 400 students attending, the school is brimming with vitality.
“Students and teachers feel better and more motivated to go to school,” says principal Rasheed Ubaid Zedan. “Everyone is happy and proud of their school. Even parents have noticed this remarkable shift in their children’s behavior.”
