KOICA has cooperated with WAJ in different water projects to reduce the burden on the Jordanian government by increasing the water supply and reducing non-revenue water in different regions in Jordan. Since 2019, KOICA has been supporting a project rennovating the water networks in the Faqoua area of Karak Governorate, which is expected to be completed in 2024.
