Greater Amman Municipality (GAM) is
keen on maximizing contact with the citizens of Amman
and on including them in the decision-making process
pertaining to development of the local community. And,
considering its firm belief that development gains are
but the outcome of this contact, interaction and
participation in drawing policies and taking decisions,
GAM, through this vision and perspective, and in order
to provide the best services possible to
service-recipients, seeks to better inform the citizens
about its role in translating said policies and vision
into tangible results.
In this regard GAM saw fit to
present to citizens a clear picture of facts, plans,
accomplishments, numbers and visions related to GAM
functions. This is in line with our belief in the
necessity of effectuating developmental awareness among
citizens of the capital, and encouraging their
participation in developing the local community.
In order to achieve this goal, GAM
started recently the publication of an informative
booklet for each of the twenty Regions of Amman. These
brochures contain ample description of each Region’s
natural, demographic and service-related characteristic.
As Al Nusr is on of the twenty
Regions, we are glad to provide some of the information
contained in Al Nusr Region booklet to interested
readers on the Internet.
