The main objective of the conference is to present and disseminate the results and outcomes of the GREEN-TAS Project: "Development of Methods and Tools for the Establishment of Good Environmental Performance of the Tourist Accommodation Sector in Jordan- Implementation of Pilot Studies". The outcomes of this project will help in developing a number of strategies and solutions to improve the environmental performance of hotels in Jordan. The conference also aims at bringing together researchers and professionals in the fields related to tourism accommodation sector sustainability, where they will present their research and experience. Tourism has been growing as an important sector in the Jordanian economy, such growth was combined with an increase in services and facilities, and hotels are one of them. About 476 classified, unclassified hotels and other types of accommodation are distributed all over Jordan. These hotels are causing some serious impacts on the environment. These impacts include overuse of energy sources and water, different forms of pollutions, inappropriate disposal of both waste water and solid waste, and degradation of surrounding landscapes. All these impacts make it necessary to develop plans to ensure sustainability in hotels. The GREEN-TAS Project aims at addressing problems and impacts caused by tourism accommodations in Jordan. This will help in developing a number of strategies and instruments that will ensure sustainable development of tourism accommodation sector. A guiding tool and an e-training module are designated by the project to ensure further implementation of environmental management and sustainability procedures in hotels and other stakeholders in the tourism sector. This material will be available to hotel managers and engineers even after the termination of the project. The GREEN-TAS Project is supported by the European Commission through its environmental instrument “LIFE Program”. We would like to present our best thanks to the European Commission for this support, and to all partners of the project for their distinguished efforts and work. We hope that this proceedings book will be a very useful reference to those who are concerned with achieving sustainability in the establishments and facilities in their regions… Dr. Mousa Mohsen Hashemite University Zarqa, Jordan Project Website: http://www.just.edu.jo/green_tas 3 Project Partners & Organizing Committee The Hashemite University (HU), The Beneficiary www.hu.edu.jo Dr. Mousa Mohsen Dr. Yahya Ali Dr. Mairna Mustafa Professor and Dean Assistant Professor & Assistant Professor Scientific Research and Chair Graduate Studies Department of Department of Hashemite University Humanities and Social Sustainable Tourism Zarqa 13115 Jordan Sciences Queen Rania Institute of Tel: +962 5 390 3333 Faculty of Arts Tourism & Heritage Fax: +962 5 390 3338 The Hashemite Mobile: +962 79 9050772 University P.O.

  • Education Activities for Refugees August 2019
    JORDAN Education Activities for Refugees August 2019 BACKGROUND – EDUCATION FOR REFUGEE STUDENTS Jordan continues to provide refuge to displaced populations from the region and around the world. Youth comprise a large number of the refugees in Jordan. Out of a registered population of 751,860 refugees as of 15 July 2019, 223,585 (30 %) range between the ages of 18-35 years old, and 359,945 (48%) refugees are between 0-17 years old. Refugee children enjoy free access to national basic education systems as mentioned in the Education Strategic Plan 2018-2022. However, refugee children face specific issues in terms of documentation (specifically for non-Syrians), a lack of resources and school materials. At present, there are limited opportunities available for refugees wishing to access tertiary education; whether for graduates of secondary school, or students who were forced to interrupt their university studies due to conflict. As reflected in UNHCR Global Education Strategy, tertiary education is an integral part of UNHCR’s Education Jordan Strategy 2017- 2019, and is considered within the continuum of the education cycle. Tertiary education includes all types of post-secondary education, such as education at colleges and universities which leads to degrees, as well as training that is technical, vocational, professional/para-professional and results in certificates and diplomas. In 2019, the education Working Group (WG) and the tertiary education WG were merged in Jordan to provide a forum for partners to coordinate activities, share best practices and ensure that opportunities provided in Jordan are based on evidence and meeting the needs of the beneficiary population on basic, secondary and tertiary educational levels as we as exploring cross sector coordination with livelihood sector.
