Jordan Environmental Union is participating in the Eighth GEF Assembly (GEF Assembly 2026) in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, representing Civil Society Organizations from West Asia within the GEF CSO Network.
This participation comes at a critical moment often described as the “last sprint to 2030,” as representatives from 186 countries gather to shape the future of global environmental finance and accelerate action on biodiversity conservation, climate resilience, pollution reduction, and community-led environmental initiatives.
The Union reaffirms the importance of ensuring that the voices of local communities, Indigenous Peoples, youth, women, and civil society organizations are reflected in global environmental decision-making processes, contributing to environmental justice and sustainable development at national, regional, and international levels.
