About the Cooperative

The idea of establishing the Wise Women Plumbers Cooperative was developed through time, by hard work of a group of women from the Jordan society, who received technical training on plumbing services within the framework of the "Pioneers of Change" project of the Ministry of Water and Irrigation, that was implemented in cooperation with the German Agency for International Cooperation
The project aims at the training of a large number of women from local communities to expand their knowledge base and to provide them with plumbing skills, which ultimately contribute to raising the level of water use efficiency and reducing water losses

This endeavour enhanced the role of women in dealing with water issues at home, resulting in savings in water bills and maintenance expenses. This will expand the base of participation of Jordanian women in the service of water sector and water conservation, through the provision of plumbing skills that enable them to deal with domestic water work and participate in serving their local communities
The Wise Women Plumbers Cooperative was established in the year 2014 and was registered at the Jordan Cooperative Corporation (JCC). The Cooperative is a legal entity with independent financial liability. It aims at raising the awareness of the society about the conservation of water resources, and the promotion of economic empowerment opportunities for women working in the field of maintenance and sanitation. It provides a legal base for women working in the field of plumbing
The Management Committee of the Cooperative consists of 6 members. The Cooperative conducts training programs in the field of plumbing. It provides plumbing services for public and private institutions and houses and serves in raising the awareness of local communities about the conservation and periodic maintenance of water resources
