QUEST Jordan

Through the “QUEST Recovering Businesses”, funded by Kerk in Actie in 2018, the Department of Services to Palestinian Refugees (DSPR) started QUEST Jordan in early 2018 to provide both technical and financial support to entrepreneurs in Jordan by providing a business acceleration program to scout the best entrepreneurs, support them with training, mentoring, opening networks, and providing start-up capital.

Due to the success of the piloting phase in Jordan, the program spun off to Iraq in 2020 and Lebanon in 2022 to support the entrepreneurial ecosystem and adopt a job creation and capacity-building strategy to achieve and promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth.
