Expansion of Amman’s Green City Action Plan to food logistics and urban greening

This project supports the update of Amman’s Green City Action Plan (GCAP) by pursuing two objectives: (i) integrating sustainable urban food logistics into city planning, and (ii) expanding urban green cover to reduce urban heat island effects and strengthen climate resilience.

To achieve these objectives, the project will identify priority policy and investment actions, with a particular focus on Amman’s central market as a strategic food hub. It will assess opportunities to improve food system efficiency and resilience, reduce and valorize food waste through circular approaches, strengthen regional supply linkages, and identify green infrastructure investments to address heat stress and water scarcity. The project will also review relevant policy and regulatory frameworks, foster public-private dialogue, and provide evidence-based recommendations and monitoring indicators to support long-term implementation of the GCAP and future climate action.
