TITLE:
Analyze opportunities to increase exports for sectors with high inclusion of women, youth, and/or persons with disabilities

BACKGROUND


The Jordan Economic Reform Activity Task Order 1 (ERA TO1) is a 5-year, $54 million program funded by USAID, which aims to support the Government of Jordan (GOJ) to prioritize and implement economic reforms.

Through coordination with the GOJ, the Jordanian and international private sector, other donors, and Jordanian civil society, ERA TO 1 will (1) advance economic reforms, (2) strengthen the business enabling environment, (3) increase exports and local, regional, and international investments, and (4) respond to emerging priorities.


OBJECTIVE
This assignment contributes directly to USAID ERA's support to the Jordan National Export Strategy (NES) Action Plan.

The objective of this assignment is two-fold:

First:

To build on the Economic Modernization Vision (EMV) priority sectors and conduct a gap analysis of sectors with high potential to employ and support inclusion of women, youth, and persons with disabilities.


Second:

After the priority sectors with inclusion potential are identified, increase the capacity of businesses in these sectors to engage in trade.


Main tasks of this assignment:


Through a consultative process, identify priority industries/economic sectors within NES that have more potential for employing women, youth, and persons with disabilities.

Hold a brief meeting with the Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Supply (MOITS) and convey the finding of the consultative process on the identified priority sectors that would employ more women, youth and persons with disabilities.

Identify opportunities and exporting gaps for the identified priority sectors and suggest ways to mitigate such gaps.

The gap analysis will include legal barriers and other constraints to inclusion and how existing laws and regulations promote or inhibit the inclusion of women, youth, and persons with disabilities:

Strengthen the capacity of selected businesses on available export opportunities by designing training content to be presented to companies.

The training should demonstrate an emphasis on promoting inclusion of women, youth and people with disabilities in export.

RESPONSIBILITIES
The assignment consists of the following activities:

Activity 1:

Inception phase, including identification of sectors that have more potential for employing women, youth, and persons with disabilities and consideration of legal barriers.


Activity 2:
Identify opportunities and exporting gaps for the identified priority sectors and suggest ways to mitigate such gaps.

The gap analysis will include legal barriers and other constraints to inclusion and how existing laws and regulations promote or inhibit the inclusion of women, youth, and persons with disabilities.


Activity 3:

Increase awareness and knowledge of NES members on priority sectors with the potential to employ more women, youth and persons with disabilities.
