Shabakat Al Ordon is committed to empowering citizens to meet the demands of emerging economic opportunities in order to improve the overall conditions of their lives.  A non-for-profit limited liability company incorporated in Jordan in 2005, its mission is to drive and implement transformational strategies that improve the economic and social well-being of local communities.  Shabakat Al Ordon centers its strategies on local youth, who are enabled with technical, professional and facilitation skills in order to empower others, build communities of practice, and incubate initiatives that respond to their community needs through the integration of information and communication technologies in their day-to-day lives.

In 2002, the original NetCorps Jordan program was created as a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Information and Communications Technology (MOICT), the Queen Zein Al-Sharaf Institute for Development (ZENID), and the Digital Opportunity Trust (DOT).  Formally launched in July 2003 by HM King Abdullah II, the program was incubated within ZENID with the assistance of an extensive network of program partners, including NITC’s Knowledge Stations, Jordan Education Initiative, the Ministry of Education, and the King Abdullah II Fund for Development (KAFD).  In July 2005, the program was spun-off as an independent national entity with the support of the USAID-funded AMIR program and CISCO Systems.
