General Information: 75,000 Visitors Attend Jordan Food Exhibition 2016 Jordan Food Exhibition 2016, which concluded on Sunday June, 5, received over 75,000 visitors. The five-day exhibition, which featured products by 150 factories, wholesalers and retailers, received positive feedback from visitors due to its organization and the caliber of the participating companies. The exhibition was held in Amman at Hussein Youth City, with over 4,000 square meters showcasing what the local food market has to offer. American products dominated many of the exhibits, showcasing a range of products that included rice, poultry cuts, nuts, cheese, and snacks. It was noticeable the strong presence of leading U.S. brands vying for market share in Jordan’s highly competitive environment, especially those of processed foods, cheese, and rice. Fruit and Vegetable Farmers’ Plight Continues Despite a pick-up in demand of fruit and vegetables (F&V) due to high demand during the holy month of Ramadan, prices continue to remain low as farmers are unable to shrug off excess supply due to the border closings in the neighboring countries, as war continues to wreak havoc. The Chairman of Jordan Valley Farmers Association has called for farmers to abstain producing F&V after an annus horribilis that left them with nothing but debts, and minimal government support.

  • Thematic Assessment Report Livelihoods,Employment
    LIVELIHOODS, EMPLOYMENT AND TENSIONS IN JORDANIAN COMMUNITIES HOSTING SYRIAN REFUGEES THEMATIC ASSESSMENT REPORT JUNE 2014 Livelihoods, Employment and Tensions in Jordanian Communities Hosting Syrian Refugees - June 2014 SUMMARY With the protracted Syrian crisis extending into its fourth year, the conflict continues to force millions of Syrians to seek refuge in the neighbouring countries of Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon and Turkey. These host countries are bearing the brunt of the crisis, which represents the largest refugee exodus in recent history with a total of 2,863,595 registered refugees now living outside of Syria.1 Since 2011, approximately 600,000 Syrians have crossed the border into Jordan, putting immense strain on already scarce resources, and intensifying competition for basic services. The vast majority of these refugees do not reside in camps, but are hosted by Jordanian communities,2 where limited opportunities, a lack of resources and inadequate living space present a challenge to social cohesion and community resilience. In Jordan, few comprehensive studies have been conducted to provide an in-depth understanding of the key drivers of host community tensions. To address this information gap, this multi-sectoral REACH assessment aimed at identifying where tensions have emerged across northern Jordan as a result of the Syrian refugee crisis, and how they could be mitigated through social cohesion and resilience programming. In the shift from humanitarian relief to long-term development, the assessment aims to promote and inform the mainstreaming of a ‘Do No Harm’ approach in the response provided to conflict-affected populations residing in Jordanian host communities. Sectors assessed included: education, external support, healthcare, livelihoods, municipal services, shelter and water.

  • Holy City and Holy Land As Viewed by Jews and Christians in the Byzantine Period: a Conceptual Approach to Sacred Space
    HOLY CITY AND HOLY LAND AS VIEWED BY JEWS AND CHRISTIANS IN THE BYZANTINE PERIOD: A CONCEPTUAL APPROACH TO SACRED SPACE Aaron Demsky n the Byzantine period, both Judaism and Christianity had well I developed ideologies of sacred space, whether it be in terms of the Holy City or of the Holy Land, which was perceived as a dis­ tinct area in the former religion or as the totality of many holy sites in the latter religion. 1 We are fortunate in having two ex­ traordinary archaeological finds that illustrate how these com­ peting faiths viewed the Land as the medium for experiencing the holy.

Early Christianity developed the idea of pilgrimage to specific holy sites where miracles were to have occurred or where biblical and Christian saints were supposedly buried.
