UNDP Jordan Country Program aims to support the national efforts in reaching a solution pathway that boosts the resilience and inclusion of the nation through its five programmatic pillars and can efficiently address the development challenges it is faced with.  Among these pillars is the Environment, Climate Change, and DRR Portfolio that assists the country to integrate the environmental concerns, climate adaptation plans, and Disaster Risks Reduction in the national and sectoral strategies, secure resources, and foster sustainable development through advocacy, program implementation, and coordination. 

The Portfolio of Environment, Climate Change, and DRR supports for nationally owned sustainable development pathways that include the following areas:  Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services; Sustainable Land Management and Desertification; Water and Marine Governance; Climate Change and Drought; Energy; Waste Management; Green Economy; and Disaster Risks Reduction. Driving towards these goals, UNDP Jordan CO supported Jordan to release its National Climate Change Policy (CCP) for 2022-2050 and the Natural Disaster Risk Reduction National Strategy 2023-2030.
