The building is 25 sqm classroom in a dome shape built to host Syrian and Jordanian children in Za’atari village, located just outside of the Za’atari refugee camp, 10 km from the Syrian border.
A vast majority of people who have been displaced from Syria are now living informally within the host community, hence they are often found without access to social security, sanitation and educational facilities.
