This work studies the role of aid in promoting a sense of self-reliance among refugees and thus reducing the burden on asylum countries. It is thought that asylum countries' increasing acceptance of refugees can increase the number of refugee-related demands. In the case of refugee camp, sports activities have been used to promote life skills education and self-reliance among refugee youth. Recent research about development through sports indicates that aid through sport typically does not include ways to continue the program itself or involve implementers on the field to activities that are the donor countries' responsibility. Therefore, refugees, who are the main stakeholders, cannot subjectively engage in educational activities through sport. Thus, it is possible that aid is not helping to promote self-reliance among refugees.This paper aims to clarify signification of educational support on refugee camp by Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR).The study took place from January to March 2016 in the Zaatari Refugee Camp in Jordan, and involved Syrian volunteers who are refugees, Jordanian staffs working in refugee camp, and refugee youths, all of whom used CBPR to implement education activities through sport activities organized by a non-governmental organization. We comprehensively analyzed the whole CBPR process.When I did that: Even though the members of CBPR recognized the issues in the refugee camp, they could not approach and try to solve the issues because they were pursued by assistance agency at the beginning of CBPR. The activities that have a long-term vision, such as training implementers, are not performed sufficiently. This does not promote refugees' self-reliant behavior, which enable them to analyze local issues and take action even while being extremely vulnerable. However, the members were able to use grassroots methods to implement education activities with a sense of ownership through CBPR, such as sharing education and youth related issues. Consequently, Syrian volunteer revealed that the sports event, which was organized by the assistance agency, was creating an opportunity for violence and inequality in the refugee camp. and suggested that the significance of using safe sports, using new sports, and working with local adults to solve these issues.This study shows that the perspective of participatory development such as CBPR is also needed in SDP. CBPR can create a conductive environment for such a process. It also makes it possible to train staff who can use sports as an effective education tool local, and develop and continue education aid, which contributes towards fostering a sense of independence and ownership in refugees.The implications of this study will help to promote strategies to use sports to develop educational activities on refugee camp. The field of SDP is a field of sports instruction and assistance with a mechanism of top and down. The participatory perspective was born under a democratic state. Therefore to consider How is the CBPR, which emphasize equal relationship of people involved, adapt the field of sport instruction or assistance which has hierarchy system, will be a future issue.
