dc.descriptionJordan, recognized as one of the most water-scarce nations globally, confronts formidable climate change risks. The exacerbation of water scarcity due to climate change profoundly impacts rural and urban areas, posing threats to household safety, health, livelihoods, and sustainable development. Jordan's susceptibility to climate hazards is compounded by erratic rainfall patterns, rising temperatures, and an unprecedented population surge. Certain sectors, notably agriculture, bear a heightened vulnerability, with 61 percent of cultivated land relying on rainfed agriculture. In response to documented exposure, vulnerability, and adaptation deficits, project interventions target four Governorates within the Dead Sea Basin, namely Karak, Madaba, Talifah, and Ma’an. Aligned with Jordan's climate change policy (2013-2020), the project aims to bolster adaptive capacity among communities and institutions, cater to the needs of vulnerable demographics, and enhance the resilience of water management systems and the agricultural sector in the face of climate change.
