Childhood development-focused NGO to launch Arabic-language information platform

AMMAN — Childhood development-focused NGO, Neurogarden is hosting a virtual summit on August 25, during which they will launch a new Arabic-language platform to inform parents and teachers about neuroscience and early childhood development.

The upcoming summit will demonstrate the significance of educating Jordanian parents on the psychology behind early childhood development in order to foster better learning environments for children to thrive.

A child’s brain develops significantly in the first three years and is already 90 per cent developed by the time they reach kindergarten, said Hani Al Akasheh, who founded Neurogarden with his brother Fares. These are “the most plastic years” for brain development “with the most rapid transformation”, which is why it is so critical for parents and educators to understand neuroscience.
