| Abstract: |
The Academy for Educational Development (AED), with funding from the Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI), supports the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Yemen in the establishment of the Student Councils Project. The program works with a number of schools in the Republic to establish student councils that are democratically elected according to the organizational by-laws of the student councils that were published by the Ministry of Education on October 6, 2008. As an additional means of providing the necessary technical support to schools, the Student Councils Project presents this how-to guide that explains in a simple way the mechanisms and methods that lead to the formation of effective student councils. It is hoped that students find the information contained herein helpful in their realization of the desired objectives in the establishment of student councils throughout schools in the Republic.
