Injaz For The Creation Of Opportunities For Jordanian Youth

Injaz For The Creation Of Opportunities For Jordanian Youth is a non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov, headquartered in Amman, Jordan, that specializes in youth development programs with a particular focus on employment, education, and entrepreneurship for young people, especially women aged 18 to 35. The organization provides targeted services through federal grant awards, primarily working with the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs to implement cross-cultural and skills development initiatives. Its core mission appears to be strengthening bilateral ties between the United States and Jordan by empowering young Jordanians through professional and entrepreneurial capacity-building programs.

The organization has secured two significant federal grant awards from the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, totaling $670,000, which support distinct but complementary programs. The first grant, awarded in October 2023 for $320,000, funds the "Cultural Exchange Through Digital Designs" program, which focuses on enhancing the employability of Jordanian youth and entrepreneurs through cross-cultural learning exchanges, training workshops, and public outreach campaigns. The second grant, awarded in October 2024 for $350,000, aims to address employment, educational, and entrepreneurship challenges for young Jordanians, particularly women. Additionally, Injaz has been involved in a sub-grant award with Mercy Corps, focusing on improving economic and social opportunities for women in Jordan. These grants fall under the Public Diplomacy Programs (CFDA 19.040) and demonstrate the organization's commitment to fostering professional development, cultural understanding, and economic empowerment for Jordanian youth.
