Creating a task that genuinely challenges the best models is non-trivial. You need to deeply understand where models fail and what scenarios reveal the difference between a good and a bad solution.

<h4>Office/unit/project description</h4>
<p>The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Country Programme in Jordan aims to enhance the nation's inclusivity and resilience to achieve its national priorities, aligned with the 2030 Agenda. The Jordan Country Office focuses on key priorities, including governance and peace, inclusive growth and sustainable livelihoods, environment, renewable energy, climate change, financing for development, and SDG impact.</p>
<p>Regarding the significant challenge posed by financing for development, the 2015 Addis Ababa Action Agenda emphasized the importance of holistic approaches to financing national strategies. In response, UNDP launched Financing for Development (FfD) portfolios which include initiatives in partnership with both governmental and private stakeholders to align public and private capital flows with national development priorities and to mobilize the necessary financing for large-scale development impacts.</p>
<p>In an effort to build a coherent sustainable finance architecture, UNDP leverages its technical expertise and convening power to support the deployment of an Integrated National Financing Framework (INFF) in Jordan. This government-led process unites government entities, the private sector, and development cooperation partners in devising a strategy to finance national development. To inform this strategy with data and analyses of the financing landscape, UNDP Jordan already conducted a Development Finance Assessment and complementary thematic studies. Building on these efforts, the country office is now deploying a FfD portfolio to further support the government in developing an INFF roadmap anchored with the priorities of Jordan’s Economic Modernisation Vision (EMV).</p>
<p>With its FfD portfolio, the country office is seeking to effectively leverage innovative financing and support investments into the green transition. UNDP Jordan is partnering with the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) toward an area-based development programme to establish a Jordan Valley Green Economic Corridor.

<p>The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Country Programme in Jordan aims to enhance the nation's inclusivity and resilience to achieve its national priorities, aligned with the 2030 Agenda. The Jordan Country Office focuses on key priorities, including governance and peace, inclusive growth and sustainable livelihoods, environment, renewable energy, climate change, financing for development, and SDG impact.</p>
<p>Regarding the significant challenge posed by financing for development, the 2015 Addis Ababa Action Agenda emphasized the importance of holistic approaches to financing national strategies. In response, UNDP launched Financing for Development (FfD) portfolios which include initiatives in partnership with both governmental and private stakeholders to align public and private capital flows with national development priorities and to mobilize the necessary financing for large-scale development impacts.</p>
<p>In an effort to build a coherent sustainable finance architecture, UNDP leverages its technical expertise and convening power to support the deployment of an Integrated National Financing Framework (INFF) in Jordan. This government-led process unites government entities, the private sector, and development cooperation partners in devising a strategy to finance national development. To inform this strategy with data and analyses of the financing landscape, UNDP Jordan already conducted a Development Finance Assessment and complementary thematic studies. Building on these efforts, the country office is now deploying a FfD portfolio to further support the government in developing an INFF roadmap anchored with the priorities of Jordan’s Economic Modernisation Vision (EMV).</p>
<p>With its FfD portfolio, the country office is seeking to effectively leverage innovative financing and support investments into the green transition. UNDP Jordan is partnering with the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) toward an area-based development programme to establish a Jordan Valley Green Economic Corridor. This ambitious initiative is designed to run for over seven years and encompasses a portfolio of development projects aligned with the key components of the EMV.</p>
<p>The Jordan Country Office is seeking to recruit a Programme Analyst (Economist and innovative finance) who will, under the strategic guidance of the Resident Representative (RR) and the direct supervision of the Partnership, Innovation and Business Development Specialist, support in leading the implementation of the Integrated National Financing Framework (INFF) and contribute to the further development of the Financing for Development (FfD) portfolio.</p>
<h4>Scope of work</h4>

The Programme Analyst contributes to the development and implementation of UNDP’s economic policies, supporting the government’s efforts towards sustainable and inclusive development.

<p><strong>About Youth Grow Activity </strong></p>
<p>Launched in 2023, Youth Grow Activity (YGA) is a five-year US Government (USG)-funded initiative that aims to transform the economic trajectory of Jordan’s youth while strengthening resilient, opportunity-rich local systems to promote long-term stability and security. YGA reflects a growing strategic consensus: youth economic empowerment is no longer just a development objective; it is a tool for socioeconomic prosperity. YGA tackles the root causes of economic exclusion and youth unemployment—key drivers of social unrest, destabilized vulnerable communities, and brain drain and migration. By aligning local and national economic opportunities with shared regional and global strategic interests, YGA leverages economic empowerment as a force to foster resilient partnerships that help co-create future-ready systems.</p>
