Water Innovations Technologies (WIT) (Jordan):  The objective of USAID's Water Innovations Technologies activity is to leverage the private sector to drive conservation of Jordan's limited water resources by increasing the number of farmers and households using proven techniques and the latest water-saving technologies. This activity targets water conservation at both the community level and within the agriculture sector by promoting practices to preserve, protect, and utilize water resources more efficiently. WIT aims to leverage the use of technologies through improved public awareness, capacity-building and institutional-strengthening measures, and private sector incentives like financing..          Through this activity, USAID is working with companies that sell irrigation technologies to farmers and providing them with information, technologies, equipment, and services to reduce the use of water in the agriculture sector, which currently accounts for 52 percent of water use in Jordan. This will improve on-farm water management practice and yield greater profitability for farmers. At the household level, USAID is helping families stretch limited water by improving the efficiency of water use for their daily needs. At the community level, USAID is introducing simple, proven interventions, such as water harvesting and cistern storage, to benefit households and institutions. Outreach efforts will raise awareness in the community on the importance of water conservation in order to promote behavior change and will increase the visibility of water conservation technologies in order to facilitate wider adoption of these solutions. Community interventions will focus on northern Jordan where host communities are most impacted by the refugees and will seek to benefit both Jordanian and Syrian members of the communities. ... .. .. .... ..

Administration and Oversight Assist special populations which may be vulnerable or at-risk on a temporary or chronic basis whose needs are not addressed under emergency humanitarian assistance or other programs. These include groups such as the disabled; orphans, children and at-risk youth; victims of trafficking; victims of gender-based violence; refugees, returnees, ethnic minorities, internally displaced or other socially excluded groups; the elderly; and female heads of household. Depending on circumstances, services may intend to protect groups; mitigate adverse conditions they face, or to remove barriers to help integrate them into society. Components may include measures to increase the capacity of local service and advocacy NGOs and/or professional social workers; to establish public/private service delivery partnerships as well as family and community focused service models; to establish effective referral networks; to develop appropriate service protocols and methods for screening prospective recipients; or to improve public understanding and sensitivity to the needs of the vulnerable.
