OVERVIEW
Back in 2015, and with the Syrian crisis on the rise and refugees fleeing to the country, Jordan seemed the right country to benefit from healthcare clowning interventions; laughter and hope were very much needed. Started as a project, RED NOSES Jordan was then officially registered as a branch office of RED NOSES International (RNI) at the Jordanian Ministry of Culture in 2017. RNI is the headquarters of RED NOSES group operating in 11 countries.
Working in different setting, our interventions benefit different target groups, including hospitalized children, children with disabilities, medical staff, elderly, and children in marginalized areas.
