6/5/08
The Jordan River Foundation (JRF) marked the National Day for Child Safety, recognised on June 6, with an appeal to governmental and non-governmental organisations to enhance child safety programmes in order to combat child abuse. “As Her Majesty Queen Rania has highlighted… we cannot overstate the importance of keeping the issue of child safety and protection at the top of agendas of both the Jordanian governmental and nongovernmental organisations,” JRF Director General Valentina Qussisiya said in a statement released by the foundation on Thursday. Qussisiya underlined the pioneering efforts of Queen Rania, the foundation’s head and patron, to change policies and mindsets and raise awareness of child safety.
