Abstract
In March 2015, the United States Agency for International Development through the Local Enterprise Support Project hosted a series of city-to-city exchanges between two cities based in the United States and a number of cities in the country of Jordan. The purpose was to exchange ideas and best practices regarding local economic development. This is a reflection from those exchanges between representatives of the City of Pocatello, Idaho and various cities in the Irbid Governorate in northwestern Jordan. The proposed projects as well as the challenges with those projects in these cities in Jordan are explored in summary. Recommendations are also explored to facilitate future development in these cities.
期刊介绍：
Local Economy is a peer-reviewed journal operating as an interdisciplinary forum for the critical review of policy developments in the broad area of local economic development and urban regeneration. It seeks not only to publish analysis and critique but also to disseminate innovative practice. One particular concern is with grassroots community economic development strategies and the work of voluntary organisations, considered within the context of wider social, political and economic change.
