Our Mission

MIRRA’s mission is to work toward the implementation of sustainable development initiatives in Jordan by addressing the challenges facing the water, agricultural, and environmental sectors in order to contribute to water conservation, environmental sustainability, and social and economic prosperity.

What We Do

MIRRA is a Jordanian non-governmental organization created in September 2007. It aims to support the development of the agricultural sector in Jordan and in its neighboring countries (Palestinian Territories, Lebanon, Iraq, and Syria) by being an operator on development projects and by performing consultative missions in the domains of agriculture and irrigation such as:

•Supporting research & development

•Initiating and implementing development programs

•Use of practical field methodology

•Providing both short-term and long-term expertise and consultations

We Are Dedicated to Providing Sustainable:
Water, Agriculture, and Livelihoods

MIRRA, Methods for Irrigation and Agriculture, was created on September 2007 and based in Amman and Irbid, Jordan. It was converted to a special association that belongs to the Ministry of Environment in the end of year 2010. The impact on water availability and access across various sectors in the country breed the need to improve water use efficiencies and freshwater conservation within agriculture, as the sector is a top consumer of Jordan’s freshwater resources. MIRRA is dedicated to facing these obstacles, while positively impacting the livelihoods and wellbeing of communities and institutions.
