    Requestor(s): Environmental NGO in Jordan
    Synopsis of Complaint:
    "UNDP/Jordan don't implement their mandate, but they execute the instructions of the Ministry of Environment (M.O.E) & are both biased to NGOs that are recommended by M.O.E. UNDP/Jordan don't support the climate change combat mitigation & adaptation measures in the real vulnerable areas which are the major sources of pollution & GHG emissions. Most of the projects implemented by UNDP/Jordan in coordination with M.O.E were executed without environmental & social impact assessment "ESIA" & without engagement of the local affected communities & stakeholders in the vicinity of the project & even many of these projects executed aren't as imprtant as the mitigation & adaptation projects that are extremely required in the most vulnerable areas like East Amman, Zarka, ...etc. UNDP/Jordan & M.O.E don't even recognize the NGOs "environmental societies except few which are recommended by M.O.E."
