• • Project objectives: To spread the culture of community accountability among various segments of society. 

  • Working Mechanism: To hold community listening sessions with the participation of representatives from all segments of the local community and government officials. Citizens and government officials were trained to prepare community scorecards to assess the quality of services provided and to survey the level of satisfaction of service recipients. 

  • Implementation: The Ministry of Social Development was chosen as a model for the project due to the overlap of its work and services with a large segment of the local community, specifically the poorest segments covered by the association's services.

  • Impact: improved the quality of communication between service recipients (citizens) and service providers (government agencies), thereby reducing the intensity of dialogue and enabling the adoption of clear mechanisms to improve service quality. 

• • In cooperation with the Noor Al Hussein Foundation and with funding from the International Youth Foundation (IYF) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

  • 200 young males and females were trained in a training-for-work program in areas of the Deir Alla District in several fields, such as beauty, sewing, vegetable grading, Cars Bodywork and Painting. 

The ENHANCE project brings together a multi-agency, cross-sector partnership of organizations from (3) EU countries (Cyprus, Italy, and Macedonia) and (3) non-EU countries (Jordan, Morocco, and Egypt) to enhance their capacity to address gender inequality and discrimination by providing modern and innovative non-formal educational methods and resources to ultimately promote positive systemic change in their communities. The project will help partner organizations create supportive communities less vulnerable to discrimination, allowing for the cross-pollination of cultural norms. 

Project objectives:  

• • To enhance the capacity of association staff through training and practice.

  • To reduce violence against girls in disadvantaged or most vulnerable to violence areas, especially young women working in agriculture and girls with disabilities, through positive behaviors toward this group, eliminating the culture of shame, and integrating them into the association's programs, such as seminars, lectures, and awareness programs.

  • Addressing barriers and stereotypes that lead to gender inequality.

  • Promoting more structured support to ensure the inclusion of girls and young women. 

The project focuses on building the capacity of partners from non-EU countries and drawing lessons and experiences from EU-based partners and the European Commission's work to promote and implement gender equality.
