Our work
JOHUD is a major force for sustainable human development. With over
450 staff, the majority working in the CDC network, JOHUD has the
human resource capacities to work in most fields of development to
promote social, economic, cultural, environmental, and technological
empowerment. JOHUD draws also on the resource of a volunteer network of
some 4,000 women, youth and men, and coordinates their operations
through association with some 500 local CBOs, jamaiyyas, local
committees and other key stakeholders.
JOHUD promotes a holistic approach - that recognises the need for
multiple interventions. Our major focus is on the human element - we
place considerable emphasis on capacity building for individuals and
organisations so that they are better able to deliver goods and
services that empower the poor and vulnerable.
Our in-house skilled expertise
To carry out these tasks, we draw on a cadre of staff with technical
skills in the above fields (e.g. community mobilisation, training,
research, project management, negotiation, and fundraising) They add to
this their in-depth experience in key sectors such as poverty
alleviation, water management, reproductive health, enterprise
development etc. Where JOHUD does not have in-house expertise, we draw
on the skills of a team of associates who can deliver specialist advice
or can tackle a particular problem in depth.
With this resource, we believe that we make a significant difference in the lives of poor and marginalised people in Jordan
