In April 2026, WADI for Sustainable Ecosystems Development hosted Jordan’s national SIMMER stakeholder workshop. The event brought together public authorities, Civil Defence, international organisations, researchers, environmental organisations and civil society.

Participants discussed wildfire prevention, preparedness, response and recovery. They exchanged experience, identified common challenges and highlighted priorities for stronger wildfire resilience. The discussions also reinforced the need for closer cooperation between institutions, scientists and local communities.

The dialogue did not end with the workshop. WADI continues to work closely with stakeholders, ensuring that their knowledge and operational experience remain at the heart of the project’s implementation.

As the leader of SIMMER’s pilot activities, WADI is now preparing the next phase of the project. Through Interreg NEXT MED, these pilot actions will bring cooperation into the field. They will demonstrate practical solutions, validate innovative approaches and generate evidence that can support wildfire resilience across the Mediterranean.

The dialogue continues. The pilot actions are the next milestone. Stay tuned as SIMMER moves from consultation to field demonstration and practical impact.
