  • LETTER to G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS
    LETTER TO G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS We write to call for urgent action to address the global education emergency triggered by Covid-19. With over 1 billion children still out of school because of the lockdown, there is now a real and present danger that the public health crisis will create a COVID generation who lose out on schooling and whose opportunities are permanently damaged. While the more fortunate have had access to alternatives, the world’s poorest children have been locked out of learning, denied internet access, and with the loss of free school meals - once a lifeline for 300 million boys and girls – hunger has grown. An immediate concern, as we bring the lockdown to an end, is the fate of an estimated 30 million children who according to UNESCO may never return to school. For these, the world’s least advantaged children, education is often the only escape from poverty - a route that is in danger of closing. Many of these children are adolescent girls for whom being in school is the best defence against forced marriage and the best hope for a life of expanded opportunity. Many more are young children who risk being forced into exploitative and dangerous labour. And because education is linked to progress in virtually every area of human development – from child survival to maternal health, gender equality, job creation and inclusive economic growth – the education emergency will undermine the prospects for achieving all our 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and potentially set back progress on gender equity by years.

  • The Relationship Between Religion and State in Jordan: (Historical Perspective)
    International Journal of History and Cultural Studies (IJHCS) Volume 4, Issue 1, 2018, PP 47-55 ISSN 2454-7646 (Print) & ISSN 2454-7654 (Online) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2454-7654.0401003 www.arcjournals.org The Relationship between Religion and State in Jordan: (Historical Perspective) Hani Ahmed Shboul* Al Balqa'a Applied University, Assalt- Jordan *Corresponding Author: Hani Ahmed Shboul, Al Balqa'a Applied University, Assalt- Jordan Abstract: Since its establishment, the Jordanian state has been characterized as a civil, not religious in the theocratic sense. The state has not established on a religious basis, nor has its legitimacy been based on a ‘religious ideology’. However, in contrast, it was not established on the basis of radical secularism, which entangles a confrontational spirit with conservative and religious trends in the society. Jordan has maintained a ‘balance’ between civil and religious requirements, and preserves this trait since its inception to this time, and through generations of successive kings: Abdullah I, Talal, Hussein and Abdullah II. The country did not come out from this public line at any stage, and this balance remained a key feature of Jordan’s policy. This study aims at identifying the type of relationship between religion and state in Jordan, in other words, how the Jordanian state manages its relationship with religion. Keywords: Jordan, King, Civil State, Balance, Secular, Religion. 1. INTRODUCTION Since the establishment of the Emirate of Transjordan in 1921 by its founder, Prince Abdullah bin Al Hussein, the state has achieved a stable and unchanged ‘balance’ in its relationship with religion (Islam)1.
