The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Jordan, in collaboration with Mutah University's Prince Faisal Center for Dead Sea, Environment, and Energy Research, launched a specialized training course to empower eight female agricultural engineers in climate change adaptation within the agriculture sector. This training is part of the project Building Resilience to Cope with Climate Change in Jordan (BRCCJ), funded by the Green Climate Fund and implemented by the FAO in partnership with Jordan's Ministries of Water, Agriculture, Environment, and the UNDP. The BRCCJ aims to improve water use efficiency in agriculture, particularly in the Dead Sea Basin governorates of Karak, Madaba, Tafilah, and Ma'an. Vice President of Scientific Colleges Affairs at Mutah University, Amin Aql, emphasized the university's commitment to supporting research centers in addressing local challenges through applied scientific research. The participating engineers expressed their commitment to becoming pioneers of climate cha nge adaptation and expand their efforts to train 400 more women in this field. Valued at $33.25 million, the BRCCJ project seeks to strengthen the capacity of communities and institutions in Jordan to ensure water sustainability and address the needs of vulnerable groups.
