Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at UNDP: we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions. Taking a ‘leave no one behind’ approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply. Learn more about working at UNDP including our values and inspiring stories.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.

Background

Achieving and maintaining a balance between economic development and environmental management and conservation is essential for the realization of the country’s poverty reduction and long-term development goals.

Furthermore, the country is totally reliant on imports to meet it's household and industrial energy requirements.

UNDP has been actively involved in promoting green finance initiatives in Jordan to support the country's sustainable development goals. Through various projects and partnerships, UNDP aims to mobilize investments towards environmentally friendly projects and sectors. This includes promoting renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, and eco-friendly infrastructure development. UNDP works closely with government agencies, financial institutions, and the private sector to develop green finance tools and mechanisms in addition to organizing capacity-building workshops, training sessions, and awareness campaigns to enhance the understanding and adoption of green finance principles among stakeholders in Jordan to foster a transition towards a more sustainable and resilient economy in Jordan
