JOR. Integrated Disaster Risk Management and DRR/CCA/Water Awareness

Progetto concluso

The vulnerability of the Jordanian society and its economy to natural hazards , water scarcity and climate change induced disasters are owed to the limited proactive approaches to disaster prevention and mitigation, insufficient institutional capacities at the national and local levels, lack of trained human resources, lack of awareness amongst senior officials and communities and unsatisfactory implementation of existing policies. This project; which will be directly implemented by SDC office Amman; has been developed in order to bridge the gap; at governorates (large cities) and municipality levels; in capacities and plans dealing with DRR disaster preparedness and prevention.

Il progetto in breve
Contesto

Jordan's natural hazards profile is characterized by seismic activity, flash flooding, drought, desertification and increasing stress in water resources (quality and quantity). In view of the range of natural hazards and water scarcity, the population of Jordan is highly vulnerable and has limited coping capacities. Therefore, Jordan requires an integrated approach for disaster risk management.
Obiettivi

To improve the capacity of the country's local govern­ments and municipalities for emergency preparedness and response to man-made and natural disasters.
Gruppi target
  1. Ministry of Interior and five governorates in Jordan (governorates of lrbid, Zarqa, AI Balqa, Madaba and Jerash);
  2. The population (approx. 20'000 persons/year) who will visit the Awareness Centre in Jearash;

Indirect beneficiaries are the population of the five cities targeted to join UNISDR's Resilient Cities Campaign (approx. 2.9 mio persons) and some 20'000 families targeted by JCD's awareness campaign.
Effetti a medio termine
  1. The profile of disaster reduction in 5 governorates and municipalities is raised;
  2. The integration of risk reduction into national policies and plans is promoted;
  3. The awareness and capacities for effective local actions on DRR, CCA and Water is enhanced.
