Five volunteers from the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) organised the second camp for disabled children in the northern city of Irbid, as per the schedule decided for the special camp "Hello, Camp of Dreams," planned in four different locations.
According to a press release issued by the Agency's office in Amman on Sunday, the camp aims to provide an environment conducive to learning, especially for children with disabilities.
It said the second camp was held at the Irbid Center for Special Education last Thursday. The first camp was held in Al Koura Comprehensive Center for Special Education.
The second camp was designed to help children with disabilities experience a positive change, both physical and emotional.
