The selected entity will be expected to propose and adapt an appropriate methodology and tools to the Jordanian municipal context.

The work shall be implemented in alignment with the applicable GCF Readiness and Preparatory support programme requirements, including the Readiness Strategy 2024-2027, the applicable Readiness Results Management Framework and standardized deliverables, as well as relevant GCF environmental and social, gender and stakeholder-engagement requirements.
