Programming will take place at the three established "American Corners" in Jordan (Amman, Zarqa, and Irbid), as well as "pop up" spaces throughout the country. The key objectives include promoting interaction between local communities and the United States, developing skills, accessing English language resources, and fostering cultural exchange and mutual understanding.
