📋 Tender Overview
Project objectives
In response to these challenges, IWMI and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is implementing the Al Murunah Project, funded by the Government of the United Kingdom. The objective will be to increase water security in Jordan, Lebanon, the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and Egypt through the integration of nature based solutions for water (NBSW) and agricultural water management (AWM). Facing similar challenges associated with water security and climate extremes, other countries in the region could also benefit from nature based solutions.
The programming is being designed with a strong emphasis on local community empowerment and engagement, and with gender and inclusion mainstreamed throughout. It will ensure capacity development within and across institutions to build ownership and capacity strengthening to support the co-delivery of the impact.
The project will develop action-oriented field demonstrations and recommendations to improve the resilience of crop, livestock and fisheries production systems while protecting, sustainably managing and restoring ecosystems. It is anticipated that the site-specific project interventions will also attract important investment opportunities for the participating
