My Story

The story follows a group of passionate young Jordanian women who are leading the charge towards environmental justice in their country. After attending a lecture by a Nobel laureate on the impact of climate change, they decide to take matters into their own hands and start a platform to educate and engage people on environmental issues. It is the first environmental community group in Jordan led by women from Jordan and has recently grown to include females from Jordan. It was established in the rural city of Ajloun at the end of 2019, where environmental awareness was almost non-existent, and it developed to be members of the founding team from the governorates of Irbid, Amman and Jerash as well. We aspired to change this statement across the country by creating a team of females who share a passion for protecting our fragile planet, striving to be the voice of women in the fields of sustainability and the environment. 8 female engineers working in different fields and sectors of the environment, and because there is no single voice that presents environmental content from the local women’s point of view in Jordan, in addition to our interest in environmental issues and our desire to improve the environmental situation, we strive to bring about change in our region by spreading in the governorates of the Kingdom and spreading environmental awareness about The path of sustainable and promising green projects. The group wants to ensure that its message reaches as many people
