  • Youth Policy in Jordan
    EuroMed Youth III Programme STUDIES ON YOUTH POLICIES IN THE MEDITERRANEAN PARTNER COUNTRIES JORDAN Prepared by Katarzyna GÓRAK-SOSNOWSKA This programme is funded by the European Union This publication has been produced with the assistance of the European Union. The content of this publication is the sole responsibility of the Euromed Youth Technical Assistance Unit and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the EU. The third phase of the Euromed Youth Programme* (Euro-Med Youth III), funded by the Eu- ropean Commission (DG EuropeAid) and launched in October 2005, is a regional Programme set up within the framework of the third chapter of the Barcelona Process ‘Partnership on Social, Cultural and Human Affairs’. The overall objectives of the Euro-Med Youth Programme are to pro- mote intercultural dialogue among young people within the Euro-Mediterranean region, motivate active citizenship as well as to contribute to the development of youth policy. The overall aim of the studies undertaken in Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestinian Authority, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey on Youth Policies, was to be a reference tool which would give all stakeholders in the field of youth, as well as youth project organisers, an over- view of the situation of young people and of provisions available for them in the 10 partner coun- tries. The objectives were to identify whether there was a Youth Policy, legislation or any other national strategy addressing the needs of youth and what kind of provision was made through non-formal education and youth work in the relevant partner countries.

While it is true that we can see signs of improvement, the fact is that, the figures of the sector were no more than the 15% of those achieved in 2009. In this new environment, engineering firms are forced to choose between disappearing in the absence of projects in the domestic market or reinventing themselves to compete on international markets against foreign firms, financially stronger and with extensive experience at the global level. Eptisa’s year was no exception to the general tenor of the sector in Spain. We tackled the changes required to ensure survival in the future with decision. In short, our presence in Asia and Africa has grown considerably while the Spanish market has remained steady. In 2013 Eptisa achieved an income of 120 million Euros, over 64% of which was in international projects. Our backlog at the end of the year stood at 164 million Euros, of which 75% were projects outside Spain. Around 2,000 professionals work with us, half of which are developing projects outside Spain. seek to recognise all the people, companies and institutions who have contributed to support, disseminate and introduce A global company with local presence Spanish products and services throughout the world, helping to strengthen the Spanish economy and to internationalise our Our international branch network now covers 16 countries and companies.
