Jordan

Jordan aligns itself with the statement delivered by the distinguished delegate of
Pakistan on behalf of the G77 and china.
We should emphasize that industrial development is necessary for economic
growth & for poverty reduction & sustainable development; focusing on the laborintensive
industries which create large number of job opportunities; also special attention
should be given to start ? ups and entrepreneurship.
Jordan feels that more support ( both technical & financial ) should be provided
by the developed nations to the developing nations thus enabling them to adopt cleaner
production systems& technologies, having said that special attention should be given to
unido?s cleaner production scheme.
More access to finance should be addressed to enable industries especially SME?S
adopt latest technologies for the sake of their competitiveness& to be environmentally
sound.
Incentives should be directed to industries which are in line with human rights
best practices, gender equality, corporate social responsibility& environmentally friendly.
Academia- Industry linkages should be fostered, not only on the national level but
also on the regional& international levels.
Special attention should be given to the rising cost of energy thus helping
industries in adopting energy efficiency schemes& clean energy alternatives.
Thank You Mr. Chairman
