Equipment & Costs
The project aims to support vocational schools (Polytechnic Secondary School) in the Jazira region, which includes ten schools and institutes with approximately 600 students, distributed across cities from Derik to Hasakah.
The main objective is to equip these schools with essential resources, including student supplies, comprehensive school equipment, practical laboratories, and daily consumables, to ensure sustainable and effective educational processes.
This report outlines a detailed plan to achieve these objectives, including the materials needed for each school, their associated costs, and the necessary infrastructure. These materials cover all the basic needs to create a well-equipped learning environment and ensure the successful implementation of the project.
