The Faculty of Science at Yarmouk University participated in a comprehensive training workshop aimed at reviewing and developing academic content related to shared family care. The workshop was held from February 8–12, 2026, as part of the “Taqdar” Project organized by the Royal Health Awareness Society in partnership with UN Women.
Representing the Faculty of Science at the workshop were Ms. Abeer Al-Zoubi, Ms. Safaa Khashashneh, and Ms. Ghsoon Al-Zuaiter, along with Dr. Tareq Al-Nasser, who participated on behalf of the Princess Basma Center for Jordanian Women Studies. This participation came as part of national efforts to review and enhance academic content in ways that support positive social behaviors related to caregiving and household responsibilities, and to strengthen the concept of shared family care within the university environment.
The workshop also included representatives from several Jordanian universities, including the University of Jordan, Hashemite University, Al al-Bayt University, and Al-Balqa Applied University. This preparation is for offering the developed course starting from the second semester of the 2025–2026 academic year at the participating universities.
The Faculty of Science at Yarmouk University expressed its appreciation for this national initiative, emphasizing its pride in collaborating with the organizing entities and commending this important step that strengthens the role of universities in serving the community and promoting values of fairness, solidarity, and shared family responsibilities, positively impacting students and Jordanian society.
