Programme Goals and Major Strategies

The programme comprises five interdependent programmes and aims to support the Government of Jordan, within the framework of its national plan for the acceleration of socio-economic development and within the framework of the Common Country Assessment (CCA) / United Nations Development Assistance Framework UNDAF process to promote the rights of children and women and contribute to their protection.

The programme follows a rights-based, gender-sensitive and life cycle approach. At the national level, the programme focuses on supporting national efforts at the informing policy and legislative levels through surveys, research, advocacy, mobilisation, facilitation of policy dialogue and setting standards at all levels with opinion leaders. This will be coupled with alliance-building and strategic partnerships at all levels, with opinion leaders, the private sector, youth, civil society organisations and other United Nations agencies.

Given the limited resources available, and to ensure that maximum impact is achieved, all programme components converge through the community development programme, into the three governorates of Irbid, Zarqa, and Mafrak.

The proposed programme includes a large component of capacity building in all programmes and projects. These capacity building interventions are made based on a comprehensive capacity gap analysis that will be made by all programmes to identify the roles and obligations of different stakeholders and duty bearers and their capacities to meet those obligations.
