Amman, June 14 (Petra) — Public Security Directorate (PSD) Director
Maj. Gen. Obaidallah Maaytah on Sunday inaugurated the new Community
Peace Center building in Amman’s Shafa Badran district.

The facility, which was established in cooperation with the German
Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), aims to strengthen
national efforts to promote social awareness, counter extremism and
reinforce the values of moderation and community cohesion.

German Ambassador to Jordan Bertram von Moltke, senior officers from
Bavaria State Police, GIZ representatives, national and international
partners, and senior PSD officials attended the inauguration
ceremony.

Talking at the opening ceremony, Maaytah said the new facility
represents a significant achievement that reflects the PSD’s
“comprehensive” security strategy and its commitment to protecting
individuals and society, while advancing modern and integrated
concepts of security.

He said the project embodies an “advanced” security vision and a
“productive” partnership with Germany that has helped translate the
directives and vision of His Majesty King Abdullah II aimed at
strengthening security and stability and building more resilient
communities to address emerging challenges, particularly hurdles
linked to ideology and digital media spaces.

For his part, von Moltke praised the PSD’s efforts to promote
community peace and address modern security and intellectual
challenges.

He said the center reflects a proactive approach to prevention and
public awareness, noting that Germany’s support for the project stems
from its close partnership with Jordan and shared efforts to combat
extremism, online recruitment and threats to security and stability.

Head of the Community Peace Center presented an overview of the
project, outlining its strategic objectives and the role it will play
in supporting initiatives focused on community awareness, preventing
extremism and online recruitment, and strengthening effective
community partnerships.

The ceremony also featured a short film highlighting the center’s
mandate, facilities of the new building and its modern capabilities
designed to support awareness and training programs, further
strengthening the center’s role and national mission in promoting
community peace, moderation and social cohesion.
