Environmental Awareness Program to deal with Environmental Pollution in Al Hashimiyeh and Housing District/ Zarqa
The project will increase environmental awareness at the local community level in Al Hashimiyeh area, which is a crowded area characterized by very high levels of environmental pollution as a result of three major sources of pollution; the oil refinery, the waste-water treatment plant and the thermal power plant. To that effect, the project will conduct an awareness campaign targeted to schools, women, NGOs and will initiate contacts with decision-makers to investigate possible means of minimizing pollution on the local level.
