In the tranquil village of Al Dieseh, nine young Bedouin women are unleashing their creative skills and becoming empowered while earning an income. They are members of Al Dieseh Cooperative, which is producing ceramics to sell to locals and tourists who come to see the famous desert landscape of Jordan’s Wadi Rum protected area.

Chemonics’ Jordan Tourism Development Project is supporting the cooperative. The project, also known as Siyaha, is working with the Jordanian government, local communities, NGOs, and tourism-related groups such as the cooperative, to develop a dynamic and competitive tourism industry.

Businesses in Siem Reap start to panick due to the lack of visitors. Many people have lost their normal source of income. Even larger companies are feeling the pinch.

This is a sequence extracted from the Equity Weekly TV show # 89, broadcasted on the 24th May 2009, produced by UNDP and TVK, with support from SIDA, AusAid, Canadian International Development Agency and Irish Aid as part of the SDEP (Strengthening Democracy and Electoral Processes in Cambodia) project of UNDP CAMBODIA.
