Rising temperatures, declining rainfall, and more frequent extreme weather events, particularly flash floods and heatwaves, are straining the country’s already limited water resources and disrupting agriculture. In response, Mercy Corps Jordan is implementing Tabeaa: Strengthening Climate Resilience in Jordanian Communities, a project co-funded by the Z Zurich Foundation and the Embassy of Switzerland in Jordan. Tabeaa is part of Mercy Corps’ ongoing work under the Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance, which focuses on enhancing resilience to climate hazards globally. Through Tabeaa, Mercy Corps Jordan is strengthening climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) efforts at both national and local levels. Nationally, the project supports the localization and enforcement of climate policies and promotes climate-smart investments to build long-term resilience. At the community level, Tabeaa works in five highly vulnerable locations (Wadi Musa, Azraq, Mlaih, Dieban, and Shobak), implementing locally driven interventions to protect water resources, reduce disaster risks, and support sustainable livelihoods. By integrating national-level policy action with grassroots resilience-building, Tabeaa empowers both institutions and communities to sustainably adapt to Jordan’s growing climate challenges.</span></p> <p class="x_MsoNormal" ><span >&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="x_MsoNormal" ><span >&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="x_MsoNormal" ><b><span >Background &amp; Rationale:</span></b></p> <p class="x_MsoNormal" ><span >As part of the Tabeaa project, Mercy Corps Jordan is running a Climate-Smart Open Innovation Bootcamp that supports Jordanian entrepreneurs and start-ups developing practical solutions to flash floods, heatwaves, and other climate hazards facing local communities.
