As part of the annual Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) sessions, Embassy representatives joined partners from the ILO, IFC, UNHCR, UNICEF and the World Bank Group for field visits to and Refugee Camp to see how the partnership’s work translates into support for people on the ground.

In , we learned about the International Labour Organization (ILO) - Arab States efforts to prevent child labour and support children and their families.

In Refugee Camp, we visited initiatives spanning education, employment, social protection, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). These included the ILO’s Employment Office, which helps refugees access employment opportunities; the Family House Centre, which provides case management for gender-based violence (GBV) and child protection cases; a school run by UNICEF Jordan يونيسف الأردن; and a home visit organised by UNHCR Jordan to learn more about the support available to refugee families.

We’re still smiling about our first Dutch Community Cycling Ride which we organized in partnership with the الاتحاد الأردني للدراجات - Jordan Cycling Federation ! 🚴‍♀️🇳🇱🇯🇴

Last Friday, 100 cyclists came together for a 22km ride from Amman to Madaba, celebrating 75 years of diplomatic relations between the Netherlands and Jordan.

A morning of fresh air, good energy, and great company. Hopefully, the first of many rides to come!

A big thank you to everyone who made it happen: Cycling Jordan, and to our sponsors: the Jordanian Dutch Friendship Association and the Aqaba Marine Services Company, and to all those who joined us.

Here’s a little look back at a morning worth remembering! 🧡

Yesterday, Chargé d’affaires Herman delivered opening remarks at the Jo Fintech Festival. Jordan’s largest gathering of fintech companies and startups from across the region and beyond.

In his remarks, he highlighted that: “Fintech is not simply about technology. It is about enabling entrepreneurs to grow, helping businesses access finance and new markets, and ensuring that more people can participate in and benefit from economic progress.”

This is at the heart of why the Netherlands is proud to support the festival through the Innovative Approaches for the Financial Inclusion of MSMEs (I-FIN) Project, implemented by GIZ in close cooperation with the Central Bank of Jordan and co-financed by the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Through I-FIN, we are supporting a stronger environment for financial innovation and strengthening the financial readiness of MSMEs.
