It aims to boost business growth and employment through practical initiatives and by identifying key sectors that have the potential to provide suitable and income-generating job opportunities for Jordanians and Syrian refugees. The strategy was conceived as a response to the need of the northern governorates of Irbid and Mafraq to address the impact of the Syria refugee crisis on Jordan's labour market. It follows a review of previous development strategies, national plans and policies, and aims to create approaches that are more oriented towards development in the most affected host communities in Jordan. The initiative was led by the Local Economic Development Committee of Irbid, which is composed of government officials and employers' and workers' representatives, as well as academics and members of civil societies. To Excel, a Jordanian socio-economic and development consultancy, developed the strategy. The key author of the strategy is Zeina Aqaileh from To Excel. Special thanks go to Maha Kattaa, the International Labour Organization's Coordinator for the Syria Refugee Response in Jordan, and to Mary Kawar, Director of the ILO Office for Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi, located in Dar es Salaam, for their support in the initial phase of drafting the strategies, as well as to Diana Al Akkad, ILO Administrative and Finance Assistant in Jordan, for her support throughout the process.

In the early 70’s, Jordan established programmes to promote dairy farming - new breeds of more productive dairy cows were imported, farmers learned to comply with top industry operating standards, and the latest technologies in processing, packaging and distribution were introduced. Today there are 25 large dairy companies across Jordan. However inefficient production techniques, scarce water and feed resources and limited access to veterinary care have limited overall growth. While milk production continues to steadily increase—with 462,000 MT produced (78% of the market demand) in 2015 according to the Ministry of Agriculture—the country is well below the production levels required for self-sufficiency. The initial focus of the assessment was on cow milk, however sheep and goat milk were discovered to play a more important role in livelihoods of poor households, and therefore they were included during the course of the assessment. Sheep and goats are better adapted to a semi-arid climate, and sheep represent about 66 percent of livestock in Jordan.

    Down and Out: Founding Elections and Disillusionment with Democracy in Egypt and Tunisia

    Down and Out: Founding Elections and Disillusionment with Democracy in Egypt and Tunisia Sharan Grewal and Steve L. Monroe Forthcoming, Comparative Politics Which electoral losers become the most disillusioned with democracy following the first free and fair elections? Exploiting surveys before and after founding elections in post-Arab Spring Egypt and Tunisia, we find that the most disillusioned losers were those residing in areas where the losing parties were strongest. We argue that expectations matter. Losers whose parties are strong locally tend to overestimate their popularity nationally and thus become more disillusioned after the first elections. Beyond these attitudinal results, we find that these areas witnessed a greater increase in support for candidates from former autocratic regimes in subsequent elections. These findings clarify subnational variation in electoral losers’ attitudes towards democracy. They suggest that decentralization may keep otherwise disillusioned losers invested in democracy. 1 “She was in a state of shock and confusion. [...] It was one thing for the [Muslim] Brotherhood to win close to 40 percent, but how could 28 percent of her countrymen vote for ultraconservative Salafi parties? [...] She mourned not only for what she feared Egypt might become, but for a country that she could no longer recognize, a country that was no longer really hers. It raised the question: was [democracy] worth it? For liberals like [her], it apparently wasn’t.”1 How citizens respond to electoral loss is critical to the success of democratic transitions.2 Supporters of losing parties in founding elections must opt to remain within the democratic system for a nascent democracy to take root.

    Basrah Governorate Profile Source map: JAPU Basrah at a Glance Fast Facts Area: 19,070 km2 Capital City: Basrah Average High Temperatures: 17,7°C Average Low Temperatures: 6,8°C (January) to 41,8°C (August) (January) to 27,4°C (July) Population: 2,403,301 Population Distribution Rural-Urban: 20,1%-79,9% Updated December 2015 Geography and Climate Basrah is the most southern governorate of Iraq and borders Iran, Kuwait and Saudi-Arabia. In the south, the governorate is made up of a vast desert plain, intersected by the Shatt Al-Arab waterway which is formed by the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers at Al-Qurnah and empties into the Persian Gulf. Around Al-Qurnah and Al-Medina a number of lakes can be found, while marshland stretches from the north of the governorate into the neighboring governorates of Thi-Qar and Missan. The governorate is Iraq’s only access to the sea. Similar to the surrounding region, the governorate of Basrah has a hot and arid climate. The temperatures in summer are among the highest recorded in the world. Due to the vicinity of the Persian Gulf, humidity and rainfall are however relatively high. The governorate receives an average amount of 152mm of rainfall a year between the months of October and May. Population and Administrative Division The governorate of Basrah is subdivided into seven districts: Abu Al-Khaseeb, Al-Midaina, Al-Qurna, Al- Zubair, Basrah, Fao, and Shatt Al-Arab. The city of Basrah, the governorate’s capital, is Iraq’s third largest urban center.
  • Sulaymaniyah Governorate Profile November 2010

    Sulaymaniyah Governorate Profile November 2010

    Sulaymaniyah Governorate Profile November 2010 Overview Located in the north east of Iraq on the border with Iran, Sulaymaniyah combines with Erbil and Dahuk governorates to form the area administrated by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG). Sulaymaniyah contains the third largest share of the population, which is one of the most urbanized in Iraq. The landscape becomes increasingly mountainous towards the eastern border with Iran. Unemployment is relatively low in the governorate at 12%. However, the relatively high unemployment (27%) among women, the low proportion of women employed in wage jobs outside agriculture, allied to the relatively low percentage of jobs for women in the public sector implies that women face barriers to employment in non-agricultural sectors. Sulaymaniyah’s economy has potential advantages due to the governorate’s plentiful natural water supplies, favourable climate and peaceful security situation. Commercial flights have been operational between Sulaymaniyah and cities in the Middle East and Europe since 2005. However, poor infrastructure and bureaucratic barriers to private sector investment are hindering development. Few of Sulaymaniyah’s residents (3%) are among Iraq’s poorest, but the governorate performs badly according to many other developmental and humanitarian indicators. Education levels are generally below average: illiteracy rates among women are approaching 50% in all districts apart from Sulaymaniyah and Halabja, and are above 25% for men in Penjwin, Pshdar, Kifri and Chamchamal. 14% of Kifri and Demographics Chamchamal’s residents suffer from a chronic diseases. There are also . widespread infrastructural problems, with all districts suffering from Governorate Capital: Sulaymaniyah prolonged power cuts, and Penjwin, Said Sadik, Kardagh and Area: 17,023 sq km (3.9% of Iraq) Sharbazher experiencing poor access to the water network.

    Chapter 4 Allocated Water to Irbid and Ramtha

    CHAPTER 4 ALLOCATED WATER TO IRBID AND RAMTHA With fixed available water resource for the northern governorates in future, allocated water to the Study Area (Irbid and Ramtha) is estimated in this Chapter. Allocation is made based on sub-transmission zones first and then to the Study Area because water transfer based on water allocation will be made through main transmission line and sub-transmission line. Population and water demand in the northern governorates is estimated and distributed to each locality in the northern governorates. Then, allocated water to the Study Area is estimated. Based on allocated water, distribution facilities in the Study Area are planned in the following Chapters. The sub-transmission lines are defined as branch lines from the main transmission line. Sub-transmission zones are defined as water supply zones to which water is supplied from sub-transmission lines. 4.1 Water Demand Estimation in Northern Governorates 4.1.1 Population (1) Population by Governorate Population estimated by Department of Statistics (DOS) is used in this Study. DOS estimates governorate population with different growth rates; low growth rate in Amman and Irbid governorates and high growth rates in Mafraq, Jerash and Ajloun governorates. The estimated population for the northern governorates up to 2035 is shown in Table 4.1 and Figure 4.1. The estimated populations in the governorates are almost the same as used in the Water Reallocation Strategy 2010 where estimated populations in 2035 are 1.81 million in Irbid, 0.23 million in Ajloun, 0.31 million in Jerash and 0.48 million in Mafraq, totaling to 2.83 million.

    Chapter IV: the Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid

    Chapter IV The Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid and Mafraq – A Socio-Economic Perspective With the beginning of the first quarter of 2011, Syrian refugees poured into Jordan, fleeing the instability of their country in the wake of the Arab Spring. Throughout the two years that followed, their numbers doubled and had a clear impact on the bor- dering governorates, namely Mafraq and Irbid, which share a border with Syria ex- tending some 375 kilometers and which host the largest portion of refugees. Official statistics estimated that at the end of 2013 there were around 600,000 refugees, of whom 170,881 and 124,624 were hosted by the local communities of Mafraq and Ir- bid, respectively. This means that the two governorates are hosting around half of the UNHCR-registered refugees in Jordan. The accompanying official financial burden on Jordan, as estimated by some inter- national studies, stood at around US$2.1 billion in 2013 and is expected to hit US$3.2 billion in 2014. This chapter discusses the socio-economic impact of Syrian refugees on the host communities in both governorates. Relevant data has been derived from those studies conducted for the same purpose, in addition to field visits conducted by the research team and interviews conducted with those in charge, local community members and some refugees in these two governorates. 1. Overview of Mafraq and Irbid Governorates It is relevant to give a brief account of the administrative structure, demographics and financial conditions of the two governorates. Mafraq Governorate Mafraq governorate is situated in the north-eastern part of the Kingdom and it borders Iraq (east and north), Syria (north) and Saudi Arabia (south and east).
