Company Description

The Recycling in Jordan Activity is a 5-year project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Chemonics International.  The project seeks to increase commercial sector utilization of recycling services in Amman, utilizing a market systems approach. The Recycling in Jordan Activity will work with private recycling firms, the commercial sector, the Ministry of Environment (MoENV), and the Greater Amman Municipality (GAM) to increase recycling through the following three objectives:

  1. expand and improve private sector-led recycling services.
  2. generate greater demand for and utilization of recycling services within the Amman commercial sector; and
  3. increase local and national government support for solid waste management.

The Recycling in Jordan activity will increase the competitiveness of recycling and invigorate the circular economy using a market-based approach, strengthening market linkages, and improving the enabling environment. As the recycling sector becomes more competitive, the project will support it to capitalize on opportunities to boost commercial sector use of recycling services.
