One of NCFA’s strategic objectives is to ensure that sustainable, pertinent, accurate and reliable data and information is available, accessible and shared, which, in turn, will allow governmental and non-governmental organizations to carry out timely and informed action that will enhance the quality of life for all Jordanian families.

The NDFA is a fully computerized, comprehensive information portrait of the Jordanian family, created to build more harmonious relations between concerned parties. Such a database is key to the NCFA’s success by enabling it to perform its role as a policy think tank efficiently and effectively. Thus, the NCFA will continue its role in carrying out research and conducting assessments, including pertinent situation analysis.

As part of the NCFA’s participatory work approach, an advisory committee, representing the below organizations,  supervises and provides input on the work of the technical team of the Research and Data Resource Unit.

• The Ministry of Education (MoE)
• The Ministry of Social Development (MoSD)
• Department of Statistics (DoS)
• Yarmouk University
• The General Union of Voluntary Societies (GUVS)
• The National Center for Human Resources Development (NCHRD)
• The National Information Center (NIC)
• United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF)
• The Queen Zein Al Sharaf Institute for Development (ZENID)
• The King Hussein Foundation (KHF)

The information provided by the NDFA is a reliable and comprehensive source of data on the Jordanian family for all stakeholders, such as:

• Government organizations, including all ministries
• The Upper and Lower Houses of Parliament
• NGOs
• National and international organizations
• University faculty members and students
