What are the goals of the program?

A grants program will allow the contractor to provide funds to various organizations for internal strengthening/institution building as well as to support activities of potentially viable organizations. Each of the components will have a public outreach element whereby the local community will be provided information on how the various programs affect and improve their lives. A strong monitoring and evaluation and impact assessment unit will be created under the project that will establish baselines, targets and measure results for the Aqaba Community and Economic Development Program, while also strengthening the capacity of ASEZA and ADC to measure results.
