Royal Academy for Nature Conservation/ Conference halls


Overview

His Majesty King Abdullah II laid the foun­dation stone of a specialized Academy for training on the protection of nature and sustainable development near Ajloun Forest Reserve in 2010. HRH Crown Prince Hussein inaugurated the Academy in 2015. The academy is “the first center in the Arab world” specialized in offering training on nature conservation. The Academy funded by USAID in 2010. The Academy is constructed nearby the Ajloun Forest Reserve. It will be physically linked to the Reserve and its tourism facilities to create a single integrated eco-tourism complex. This will enable the Academy to use these tourism facilities as real-life training situations.
