ِAmel to help Syrian men and women gain skills to rebuild their country

The Daily Star published a report yesterday about programmes and activities targeting Syrians displaced to Lebanon with a special focus on the EU-funded Hay al-Sellom Youth Center run by Amel Association. The center offers training classes in various topics including English language, information technology and other.  Thus far, the centre has helped some 5,000 young men and women.  According to Amel's Director, Dr. Kamel Mehanna, the programme will allow beneficiaries to improve their livelihoods as well as contribute to rebuilding Syria once the conflict ends.  He added that the total two year budget of the centre is two million Euros donated by the European Union.
