Planting Day: Engaging Youth in Urban Agriculture at Souf Camp

17 February 2024

Engaging the youth from Souf Camp, the workshop provided hands-on experience in cultivating plants

UN-Habitat organized an urban agriculture workshop in Prince Hussein Park in Souf Camp, Jerash, as part of efforts to enhance safety and resilience among Palestinian refugees. Engaging the youth from Souf Camp, the workshop provided hands-on experience in cultivating plants. As children worked together to green the only park in the camp, this initiative aimed to not only empower them with practical knowledge but also foster a sense of belonging to their environment.
