| description | The “Jahez (Ready) - Climate-ready refugee hosting communities in Jordan” project held its first consultation meeting on climate and weather information on 20 May 2025 in Amman, Jordan. The meeting aimed to gather practical insights to enrich the understanding of weather and climate information systems in Jordan focusing on the three Jahez pilot sites in Al-Azraq, Al-Ramtha, and Irbid municipalities. The meeting brought together 21 key individuals, including representatives from the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), target municipalities, and key government entities such as the Ministry of Environment (MoEnv), Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), Ministry of Local Administration, the Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD), the National Center for Security and Crisis Management (NCSCM), and the Cities and Villages Development Bank (CVDB). Active development partners were also present including Mercy Corps and the World Food Programme (WFP).
The meeting followed a participatory and interactive approach to facilitate participant engagement and open discussion around key elements such as the status of access and use of weather and climate information by the three municipalities, actions municipalities can currently take based on such info, and the challenges faced by municipalities and other entities in relation to access, communication and use of such info. The discussion evolved around common themes such as sources and access to weather information, challenges in weather information management, response and emergency preparedness, infrastructure and urbanization issues, and opportunities for improvement.
Outcomes and recommendations focused on the need for better understanding of key climate hazards, enhancing weather and climate information with an impact-based approach, exploring/optimizing dissemination channels, and co-producing effective response/action plans. The next step for the Jahez team was to utilize insights from the consultation to inform the landscape mapping that will be shared/presented at the next Project Steering Committee meeting. |
