Org. Setting and Reporting

The United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) is mandated by the UN General Assembly to promote socially and environmentally sustainable human settlements development and the achievement of adequate shelter for all. For nearly forty years, UN-Habitat has been working in human settlements worldwide, focusing on building a brighter future for villages, towns, and cities of all sizes. The position is in the Adaptation Fund Project in Amman, Jordan.

This assignment is part of the Adaptation Fund (AF) sponsored project titled “Increasing the resilience of both displaced persons (DPs) and host communities to climate change-related water challenges in Jordan and Lebanon” which aims to support the development of a comprehensive response framework to climate change combined with the Syrian crisis, especially in an urban context. The project’s main aim is achieved through identifying effective approaches and best practices to build urban resilience, focused on actions that address water challenges and that benefit both DPs and host communities especially women and youth.

The framework is not only developed for the project’s target areas but also for areas with similar contexts. The project will focus on supporting a sustainable water management approach, by reducing water use from unsustainable sources by means of reducing water losses and increasing water use efficiency and by increasing the water supply of sustainable sources via supporting water harvesting and promoting the use of non-conventional sustainable water resources. The approach also includes promoting innovative, low cost and sustainable techniques (more information on these techniques is available upon request and is included in the full/final proposal) and establishing urban-rural linkages as water challenges also impact agriculture and livelihood security.

The project identifies DPs as the most vulnerable group due to socio-economic challenges that could affect the affordability to access water in the target areas. However, the project also recognizes increased tension between DPs and host communities and the needs of poor Lebanese and Jordanians.
