Environmental conservation has been well-funded by international aid monies in the last thirty years. Environmental problems in Jordan that receive foreign aid are separated in three areas. These areas are water-related issues, issues related to agriculture, and renewable energy utilization.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thescipub.com/abstract/10.3844/ajessp.2007.30.36=American Journal of Environmental Sciences )〕 According to the Brookings Institution, the foreign aid has become a way for Jordanian government mitigate environmental problems related to these three areas. In addition, international aid has also been used to support developmental activities related to the environment, especially eco-tourism and water management.〔(【引用サイトリンク】first=Shadi )〕 According to the World Bank, Jordan has seen a steep increase in the amount of Net official development assistance received, doubling the amount from 2004 to 2013. For 2007, the Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation (MOPIC) cites that energy, agriculture, and water management retained 12% of international aid from a total of U$680 million.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mop.gov.jo/uploads/Ex%20%20%20Summary%20-Foreign%20Assistance%202007-English%20_4_.pdf )〕 This amount substantially increased over the past few years. In 2010, 30% of foreign aid received by Jordan was utilized toward water management, renewable energy production, and improvements in arable land. Apart from an increase in the percentage rate, there has been also a considerable increase in the total amount of foreign aid derived for environmental concerns in Jordan in the period between 2007-2010. In fact, the total amount jumped from U$183.6 million in 2007 to U$623.15 million in 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mop.gov.jo/pages.php?menu_id=282&local_type=0&local_id=0&local_details=0&local_details1=0 )〕 In 2009, the Brookings Institution declared that the Jordanian government was the seventh most efficient government in the Middle East and North Africa. Because certain organizations partner only with countries that use money efficiently, Jordan received a higher increment of aid.
