Dr. Saif discussed the newly adopted development plan to bridge regional income disparities and boost employment, and shared his view on how Jordan's political transition is affecting growth.

Investing in human resources is pivotal to social and economic progress, Jordan's Prime Minister

Duration: 5:16
Updated: 09 Jun 2014

While addressing the 103rd International Labour Conference, H.E. Mr Abdullah Ensour, Prime Minister of Jordan, stressed that political, social and economic reforms in his country constitute an ongoing process which need to be sustained by democratic consent. The Jordanian Government is convinced that the growth of the country's economy is conditional to the growth of the productivity of its labour force. Mr Ensour also called for the support of the international community to help the Kingdom in dealing with the consequences of the Syrian humanitarian crisis affecting Jordan.

Why transforming our economy is child's play: Jordan Bober at TEDxKids@BC

Duration: 10:20
Updated: 05 Nov 2013

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Jordan Bober, 30, is a Vancouver-based social entrepreneur who first became fascinated by community currencies and other innovative approaches to economics while studying at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. A few years later, Jordan met modern community currency pioneer Michael Linton, igniting the desire to start a currency for his own community. The idea for a currency devoted primarily to strengthening the local food economy first occurred to Jordan in 2011. This idea blossomed into what is now Seedstock Community Currency, a Vancouver-based local currency that began circulating in January 2013. Connect with Jordan @SeedstockBC --------------------------------- ABOUT THE TALK Jordan sees the relocalisation of community economies as key to a more sustainable, just and resilient future. In his talk with Seedstock co-founder Andrew Perry, Jordan will speak about why he believes that kids already know intuitively how to solve some of the toughest economic problems of our time. --------------------------------- ABOUT TEDxKIDS@BC The mission of TEDxKids@BC is to help create a world in which the kids have been invited to explore their passions and to contribute in realizing such a world for the youth in our community. To accomplish this, we're trying to build platform for facilitating opportunities to empower kids and help them apply their passions. Find out more at http://www.tedxkidsbc.com --------------------------------- ABOUT TEDx In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
