Banaat Connect is one of the large-scale initiatives organized by Hopes for Women in Education. Hopes is a not-for-profit company registered since 2010 in Jordan that works to provide higher-education scholarships for underprivileged socio-economically disadvantaged refugee women in Jordan. In addition to ensuring full-scholarships, including tuition, transportation and academic fees are covered to Hopes’ Students, we work closely with students to ensure they build their skills and character to help them post-graduation. Hopes’ conducts monthly book-club sessions in partnership with Inkitab (a community-based book club organization), monthly workshops/ trainings, periodic counseling and mentorship, as well as, post-graduation internship placement and career assignments.
