The U.S. Embassy in Amman announces an open competition for not-for-profit organizations registered in Jordan or the U.S. to submit applications to carry out a program to organize the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs program.

The program will focus on growing participants’ business offerings and expanding their ability to promote sustainable and community-led experiential tourism (particularly in the eco-tourism and adventure tourism). It aims to achieve this by incubating 12 existing experiential tourism small businesses and 12 emerging experiential tourism small businesses through a tailored six-month program that targets a total of 24 women entrepreneurs from 12 governorates and utilizes a Training of Trainers (TOT) capacity building model. |
