Description:
This project aims to strengthen leadership of local municipalities and improve their ability to provide services, primarily in the central and southern parts of Jordan. Specifically, the project focuses on twelve selected municipalities that have been impacted by the influx of Syrian refugees. The project involves close collaboration with Jordan’s Ministry of Municipal Affairs and other strategic partners to improve local governance and operational capacity to respond to increasing demands for municipal services, including more effective strategies for managing solid waste. Canadian municipal practitioners and elected officials are also mobilized to provide peer-to-peer technical assistance to Jordanian municipalities through the creation of a virtual municipal training institute.

Global Affairs Canada
Expected Results:
The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) strengthened leadership and administrative capacity of Jordanian municipalities to meaningfully engage the community (particularly women and youth) in municipal decision-making, and to plan and deliver more inclusive services; (2) improved solid waste management services in host municipalities through the engagement of women, youth (girls and boys) and other key stakeholders; and (3) strengthened public engagement and knowledge sharing between Jordanian and Canadian municipalities.
