The Comprehensive Development Project in Debbin
In April of 2009, JRF signed a Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) with Munya Specialized Resorts, a tourism development subsidiary of Jordan Dubai Properties- the investment arm of Jordan Dubai Capital in the tourism and real estate sectors to assist in achieving MoC’s goal; to enhance the dynamics within the Jordanian community by creating and supporting sustainable social, economic and cultural programs derived from national needs and priorities in partnership with different parties. Based on that, JRF is working closely with MoC to:

• Fund local CBOs to establish income generating and producing projects owned by the CBOs benefiting from and utilizing the local resources in Debbin such as olives, handicraft and agricultural products. Priority was given to projects that promote tourism and enhance the region's infrastructure, such as stores and markets.

• Train and offer educational scholarships to students from the area through JRF and in collaboration with Al-Aman Fund.

• Support Madrasati initiative through JRF by adopting five schools in Debbin and its surrounding areas to help improve the schools' infrastructure, develop programs to enrich the learning environment including health, safety and teachers skills.
