The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) has rewarded the Jericho Multi-Site Economic and Urban Development Project, a project aiming to regenerate existing infrastructure to revitalize the city, and serve as a development model for other Palestinian cities, led by Vice President Roy Adams. The project won the first place in the category of Planning Excellence.
According to the judges: “This is a good example of an international project strongly led by planning to deliver positive environmental and health improvement outcomes in the quality of life for residents. It has a complex context, engaging with the community and building confidence, stability and investment in the area.”
NB: This project is part of UPFI (Urban Project Finance Initiative on the Mediterranean Region) promoted by UfM, EIB, EU, AFD and implemented by the French Development Agency (AFD).
