Community development plan for the Tareq B area in Greater Amman Municipality, Jordan

During the three-day dialogue event ‘Sustainable and resilient, regional and intermunicipal land management‘ from 18 to 20 November 2020, one of the project ideas that arose was to support the Municipality of Greater Amman, Jordan, in preparing a land use plan for a still largely undeveloped area in the north-east of Amman. Since the area has now been analysed in more detail, a virtual dialogue between Jordanian and German experts was initiated on 10 November 2021.

On the Jordanian side, 17 experts – architects, urban planners and GIS experts – took part in the virtual consultations. These included the heads of the local planning department and the Planning Department of Greater Amman Administration, the Department of Spatial Planning and the Department of Urban Studies. On the German side, Gerhard Gross, former project manager in the Urban Development Planning Section of the Department of Urban Planning and Building Regulations of the City of Munich, and Rainer Müller-Jökel, Head of the City Surveyor’s Office of the City of Frankfurt am Main, joined the meeting.
