  • Energy in Jordan a Youth Perspective Position Paper
    Energy in Jordan A Youth Perspective Position Paper A joint project between Friedrich Ebert Stiftung, Germanwatch and the Written by: Green Generation Foundation Amjad Khashman Kareem Shukri Qusai Al-Abbassi Mohammad Aliwat Ehab Al-Amleh Sewar Taweel Safa Al-Momani Sarah Haddadin Leen Baddar Yousef Awawdeh “Young people are not just the leaders of tomorrow; they are the leaders of today […] Young men and women like you are bringing new energy, creativity and dynamism to labor markets, to schools, to universities like this one [University of Jordan], to government, and – I hope – to diplomacy and international relations.” - UN Secretary General Ban-Ki Moon in Amman 2016 - [LW1] The impacts of climate change can already be felt across the world and are becoming more severe as the global average temperature rises. Countries all over the world are engaged in a race against time to tackle the global climate crisis. Limiting global warming implies reconsidering almost all elements of our daily life, most of which are connected to the energy sector: water, food, buildings, transportation, global trade, etc. The energy sector is the largest source of global greenhouse gas emissions through its burning of fossil fuels to generate electricity, produce heat or power engines, which directly causes climate change. However, as technologies rapidly improve and prices drop, many renewable energy options have emerged as an alternative to fossil fuels. Promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency is now an important part of the international climate debate and national energy policy in many countries, both of which are aimed at slowing down climate change.

First, it outlines the “standard itineraries” given to Arab delegations touring China both in the 1950s and in the twenty- first century, demonstrating how the changes to this agenda reflect the shifting priorities of the Chinese state. Second, it explores how the Chinese government has refined the vision of Chinese Islam that it presents to visitors from the Middle East, taking into account Beijing’s changing attitude toward expressions of Islamic piety.

  • Country Advice Jordan Jordan – JOR36525 – Christians – Muslims – Communal Violence – State Protection 30 April 2010
    Country Advice Jordan Jordan – JOR36525 – Christians – Muslims – Communal violence – State protection 30 April 2010 1. What is the current situation and treatment of Christians by Muslims in Jordan? Most of the limited sources on this topic indicate that the Jordanian Christian and Muslim population are generally amicable and the Christian population is well integrated in Jordanian society. It appears, however, that in order to maintain the status quo the communities avoid issues of intermarriage and Muslim conversion to Christianity. There were no reports of sectarian incidents prior to 2008 when 12 Jordanian members of Al Qaeda attacked two local Churches. It appears that Jordanian Christians have now become a new target for the group. Nonetheless, though the Christian community appears concerned about the rise of Islamism in the region, the same does not apply to the local context in Jordan. General Situation According to a range of sources, more than 92 % of the Jordanian population is Sunni Muslim. Estimates of the number of Christian citizens vary from 1.5 to 5 % of the population with the majority being Greek Orthodox. According to church leaders there are an estimated 150,000 Christians in Jordan.1 A number of sources confirm that Jordanian Christians do not feel threatened and live harmoniously with local Muslims.2 In a paper on Palestinian Christians in Jordan, the author noted that their economic, social and political strength remains disproportionate to their actual size and has „provided a source of envy for other minorities,
