In a water scarce country as Jordan, climate change and overexploitation of groundwater are big challenges. When the water-related issues are this big and diverse, it is not easy to find a long-term solution for each issue. Flash floods and at the same time droughts are just a few examples of these diverse threats.
What can help? Implementing water harvesting techniques and Nature Based Solutions at several pilot locations. Together with the local partner in Jordan The Inter-Islamic Network on Water Resources Development and Management (INWRDAM) and IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, we are willing to make a difference. We can only make it work when water management will be improved and the community is actively involved.
