<p>The GIZ Jordan Projects <strong><em>"</em></strong> <strong>Cash for Green Services (CfGS) and Social Protection and Inclusion of Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan (SPIRIT)”</strong> are seeking to hire a “<strong>Communication Specialist”</strong> for full-time based employment.</p>
<p><u>Cash for Green Services project Description:</u></p>
<p>Jordan continues to face significant pressure on municipal services due to the protracted Syrian refugee crisis, while vulnerable refugees and Jordanians have limited access to income opportunities. The project aims to improve living conditions—particularly for women—in the municipalities of Al-Muwaqqar, Mu'tah and Al-Mazar, Al-Hassa, and Ain Al-Basha by strengthening waste management services and expanding collection systems, including recycling initiatives.</p>
<p>Through Cash-for-Work (CfW) measures implemented in cooperation with the Ministry of Local Administration (MoLA) as the political partner, the project creates temporary employment opportunities for vulnerable Jordanians and Syrian refugees. In parallel, it supports municipalities and private waste management actors with advisory services, capacity development, and financial support to enhance operational efficiency, promote occupational safety and gender-sensitive approaches, and ensure sustainable improvements beyond the project’s duration.</p>
<p><u>SPIRIT project description:</u></p>
<p>Refugees and members of host communities with disabilities in Jordan have limited access to social protection. Only a few people know how to get support services, there is often a lack of high-quality offers on site and the quality of the services is uneven. As a result, vulnerable groups are unprotected from poverty and can only participate in society to a limited extent.</p>
<p>The project aims to improve access to high-quality social services for Jordanians and refugees with disabilities, as well as their families. The implementation focuses on four main areas. On the one hand, the project supports the <em>Higher Council for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities</em> (HCD) in reforming the procedure for determining disabilities in order to enable access to a wide range of social services for persons with disabilities. At the same time, it is planning to develop a procedure for refugees with disabilities with the <em>United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees</em> (UNHCR) with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). The second priority is to strengthen coordination and referral mechanisms by setting up a system that places people with disabilities in appropriate social services. In the third priority, decentralised institutions of the Ministry of Social Development (MoSD) are supported in improving the quality and range of services for a self-determined life for people with disabilities. Finally, together with organisations of persons with disabilities (OPDs) and local non-governmental organisations (NGOs), the policy framework is being further developed by developing recommendations for an inclusive and more sustainable social protection system in Jordan.</p>
