Organized by Social Responsibility, the Back to School campaign is part of our Young Learners Development Program (YLDP) and represents one of the many ways in which KAUST is giving back to our neighbors. The YLDP aims to improve learning environments and educational outcomes for students at the middle and high school levels by working with our local community partners to ensure needs are being met for maximum impact in the classroom and beyond.
