Amman, Jordan Municipal Support Program (MSP) - DAI Full time

"PROJECT BACKGROUND 

The USAID Municipal Support Program (USAID MSP) is a five-year program supported by USAID/Jordan, awarded in August 2022, and implemented by DAI Global LLC. The overall goal of USAID MSP is to strengthen municipal-sector service delivery and promote Local Economic Development (LED) in Jordan. The USAID MSP team will achieve this goal through the following interventions: Outcome 1: Inclusive local administration strengthened, and Outcome 2: Capital investment for municipalities increased.

USAID MSP utilizes approaches that address structural issues, systems, processes, interrelationships, behavior, and organizational culture change. USAID MSP aims to strengthen municipal-sector service delivery by supporting improved governance and organizational culture across three interventions: key policy and service delivery reforms, municipal sector public financial management, and community engagement.

The program will support increased capital investment in Jordan’s municipal sector with the goal of catalyzing local economic opportunities and strengthening service delivery by supporting improved development planning, facilitating investor partnerships, increasing access to finance, and supporting renovation and construction of fixed assets including the provision of material resources. Foundational to these efforts, USAID MSP will leverage and institutionalize the participation of marginalized groups, including women, youth, and persons with disabilities, in municipal-level decision-making. Participatory planning will improve marginalized groups’ access to public services and increase their economic opportunities. USAID MSP will work across all of Jordan’s governates.
