German Jordanian UniversityI have studied Architecture for my bachelor's in the German Jordanian University in Jordan and now doing my Project Management master's degree in GISMA Business School. I believe that Architecture and anything we learn should be implemented for the greater good, to be able to provide, help those in need and solve any problems our world and communities may face. My project - a Down Syndrome learning and rehab center - was designed after thorough research and observation on Down Syndrome. By implementing the inclusive design theory, learning from them, and thus providing and contributing to their needs. more
