Mission and objectivesAnchored in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and in line with the priorities outlined in the UNDP Strategic Plan, the Regional Bureau for Arab States (RBAS) supports the Arab States region to achieve sustainable development by eradicating poverty in all its forms and dimensions, accelerating structural transformations for sustainable development, and building resilience to crises and shocks. In addition to its presence in New York, RBAS has its main office in the Regional Hub based in Amman, Jordan with some staff based in Beirut (Lebanon) and Dubai (UAE). The Amman Regional Hub hosts regional initiatives under the Regional Programme for Arab States 2022-2025 which touches upon the following areas of work: governance and anti-corruption, regional cooperation for the reduction of poverty and inequality, knowledge economy, conflict prevention and peacebuilding, climate security, youth engagement and empowerment, gender equality, resilience building, among others. UNDPโs Country Programme in Jordan aims to enhance the nation's inclusivity and resilience to achieve national priorities aligned with the 2030 Agenda. The Jordan Country Office Programme focuses on key Unit Priorities, including Governance and Peace, Inclusive Growth and Sustainable Livelihoods, Environment, Renewable Energy, Climate Change, Financing for Development, and SDG impact. The Country Office focuses on significant development challenges, such as decentralized governance, violent extremism, institutional capacity gaps, data availability issues, water and energy scarcity, climate change, poverty, unemployment, financial literacy gaps, limited women participation, weak youth empowerment, and the impact of refugees within host communities. Our communication products serve as powerful tools to showcase our SDG mandate and clearly demonstrate how each project seamlessly integrates into the broader mandate of our country program. These products act as a corporate framework, driving the organisation's external communications and advocacy efforts to expand its influence nationally. Our communication objectives are focused on outcomes, and โ where applicable โ related to changing attitudes and/or behaviour. โข Establish UNDP Jordan as thought leader providing thematic and innovative expertise and guidance to national and international partners. โข Build a sustainable private sector engagement model to meet established partnerships and programming targets. โข Utilise digital media to expand UNDP Jordanโs digital presence and create dialogue around innovative development solutions.
