¶2.  THE CANDIDATES ARE MEMBERS OF THE KING ABDULLAH II FUND

MECHANISM ON HOW TO ENHANCE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS' ROLE IN THE

SERIOUS ATTEMPT TO HEAR STUDENTS' VIEWS ON ALL ASPECTS OF 
LIFE AND TO GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO SPEAK THEIR MINDS ABOUT 
THEIR OWN CONCERNS AND SUGGESTIONS TO UPGRADE EDUCATIONAL, 
POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL LIFE. 
 
KAFD WAS ESTABLISHED BY A ROYAL DECREE IN 2001 AS A NON- 
GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION SEEKING TO PROVIDE ALL SEGMENTS OF 
THE JORDANIAN COMMUNITY, PARTICULARLY THE LESS DEVELOPED AND 
PRIVILEGED, WITH NEW AND INNOVATIVE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES 
AIMED AT ALLEVIATING THEIR SOCIO-ECONOMIC BURDENS. HIS

THE MAIN DRIVING FORCE BEHIND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE FUND. 
 
THE NOMINATION SUPPORTS THE MPP'S DEMOCRATIZATION OBJECTIVE
