Case studyDescription
Oxfam has been working in Jordan on strengthening civil society since the early 90s. In 2013, Oxfam also started providing humanitarian assistance to Syrian refugees in Jordan. In 2013, Oxfam and four other agencies came together to create an informal working group called Jordan Local Economic Empowerment and Development Consortium (JOLEED) with the aim of improving coordination and sharing good practice. This case study discusses the benefits and challenges of this consortium.
