By 2018, the national protected areas program reviewed and effectively implemented.
The protected areas network is dated back since 1964 where the first mission was conducted. Despite the continuous update for the protected areas network, but a detailed and comprehensive review is needed especially with the increasing threats and changes that have happened to population structure in Jordan. Thus, a country assessment of key biodiversity and agro-biodiversity areas should be developed and adopted nationally. In addition, the national protected areas network should be reviewed where terrestrial protected areas should cover 2% of the total area of the country at least and 10% of the marine protected areas.
