Head of Al-Nowair foundation Sheikha Intisar Salem Al-Ali Al-Sabah, said Saturday the Kuwaiti NGO was, for the first time ever, taking part in a high-level interactive dialogue marking UN Day of Education, highlighting Kuwait's Bareeq and Boomerang programs.
"Bareeq is a valuable, educational and interactive educational program which is based on scientific research on psychology," Sheikha Intisar said in remarks to KUNA.
This program, she added, aimed at spreading positive thinking amongst high school students in Kuwait.
Founded in 2017, Bareeq is involved with 47 government high schools and features around 500 teachers and over 11,600 students, she added.
The program, said Sheikha Intisar, contributed to improving behavior of students. Bareeq was included, in April 2018, in New Kuwait 2035 vision.
She said schools' administrations reported improvement in behavior of students, including decline in violence and absnece, contributing to success.
