Michael Koch, Deputy Scientific Director and Managing Director at the Institute for Economic Education (IÖB)- Oldenburg-Germany, said that this project was not just about transferring knowledge and experiences from Germany to Jordan but was considered an exchange of knowledge and experiences between both parties, as participants from Jordan have contributed to this“wonderful result” with their experience in teaching and their deep knowledge in many related topics.
