The project built on thorough analysis of key beneficiaries' needs and national priorities, which are meant to achieve: 

 

  • Increased political awareness amongst the population, including women and youth, reflected foremost in an increase in political participation; 

  • Intensified efforts amongst elected institutions in public outreach for more inclusive decision-making processes; 

  • Increasingly informed service delivery by public demands and subsequently more geared to cater the needs/will of the people.

  • The HoR is reinforced in exercising its core parliamentary functions in a professional, accountable and transparent manner;

  • The IEC and other key stakeholders’ capacities to contribute in professional, transparent and credible electoral processes are strengthened;

  • The political party system’s role to contribute to democratic governance and policy-making, in particular through the Parliament, is enhanced;

  • The inclusivity of national policy and decision-making processes is enhanced through sustained multi-stakeholder dialogues;

  • Jordan's reform process towards consolidation of deep democracy is supported by a multi-facetted approach that promotes increased coherence and performance of all democratic institutions by building bridges between elected institutions and citizens.

With regards to the civil society organisations, the main expected results are:

 

  • CSOs' capacities to conduct civic education, voter information, public awareness on the roles of the Parliament and the IEC and to promote the role of women and youth in political life are enhanced;
