Anglais

IDLO’s work in Jordan centres on promoting economic growth by supporting the development of stronger legal frameworks and improved access to justice.

IDLO has been active in Jordan since 2000 and has continued to scale up its engagement in the decades since. In 2009, Jordan became an IDLO Member Party and in 2019 IDLO’s legal status in the country was recognized through a Host Country Agreement.

Over the years, IDLO’s efforts have enhanced the capacities of Jordan’s Ministry of Justice and Judiciary, along with civil society organizations and the private sector.

Jordan - Insolvency Law Judicial Training

In 2018, Jordan introduced a new insolvency law to support the recovery of distressed but viable businesses. The law and its by-laws outline insolvency procedures and the relevant regulatory bodies, covering economic activities by traders and companies.

In collaboration with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, IDLO is assisting the Judicial Council and Judicial Institute of Jordan in developing training materials to be used in blended learning modules to enhance judges' capacity to manage insolvency cases under the new law.

Jordan - Strengthening Capacity of National Partners in Economic Laws

With support from the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development, IDLO collaborated with the Judiciary of Jordan from 2019-2020 to enhance the role of economic courts as key drivers of economic growth.

This effort included a comprehensive needs assessment of economic courts, conducted in partnership with legal professionals and business community representatives. The assessment findings informed the development of Jordan’s National Justice Sector Strategy.
