Ostathi in Al Ghad: Redefining Human Capital as the Engine of Jordan’s Economic Future
Across modern economies, sustainable prosperity is built not only on resources or infrastructure but on the knowledge and skills of people. Despite this reality, much of that human capability often remains underleveraged.
Ostathi was created to change that. More than a digital platform, it functions as a national growth partner, designed to unlock, distribute, and monetize expertise across education and training sectors. First introduced to the public through Jordan News, this model has already drawn national and regional attention as a bold new approach to education, capacity building, and economic development.
Ostathi was established to address this challenge. More than just a technology solution, it is a framework for growth — transforming individual expertise into a driver of economic development. Grounded in UniHouse’s internationally recognized Capacity Development Evaluation Framework (CDEF) and consistent with standards applied by institutions such as the World Bank and United Nations, the Ostathi Economic Model is designed to channel talent into measurable impact.
Foundations of the Ostathi Economic Model
- Empowering Independent Enterprise
Equipping educators, trainers, and professionals with the infrastructure to operate as self-sustaining entrepreneurs.
- Closing the Competency Gap
Aligning training pathways with school, university, and workforce priorities to strengthen readiness for global competition.
- Inclusive Participation
Extending opportunities to marginalized groups, including women and youth, through equitable access initiatives.
- Public Sector Alignment
Providing scalable tools for skills tracking and training programs that support government reform agendas and national strategies.
- Formalizing Informal Economies
Introducing secure digital transactions to establish transparent earning records and expand participation in the formal economy.
- Evidence-Based Policy Support
Generating aggregated insights from learning and performance data to guide smarter policymaking.
Enablers of Change
- Digital Readiness: With infrastructure backed by Microsoft, Ostathi ensures continuity and resilience in education and training delivery.
- Global Relevance: By aligning with international standards, Ostathi strengthens national competitiveness and fosters integration into the wider knowledge economy.
The Broader Impact
- For governments: stronger workforce systems, broader fiscal participation, and better policy data.
- For partners: measurable, standards-aligned interventions that amplify development outcomes.
- For individuals: access to income generation, skill recognition, and career growth.
- For nations: a shift toward treating human capability as a renewable source of prosperity.
Grounded in Global Expertise
The Ostathi framework draws its strength from UniHouse Global — a UK-based advisory firm highlighted by both the UK Government and The Daily Telegraph for its leadership in education and capacity development. At its core is UniHouse’s Capacity Development Evaluation Framework (CDEF), a methodology built to align with World Bank and UN standards, ensuring every intervention is both measurable and accountable.
In direct alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the World Bank’s Human Capital Project, Ostathi creates pathways that connect national talent pools with international opportunities. Jordan has been selected as the inaugural hub, setting the stage for broader regional expansion.
Jordan as a Regional Pioneer
With a predominantly youthful demographic, strong digital readiness, and forward-looking reforms in the education sector, Jordan provides the ideal environment to showcase the Ostathi Economic Model in action. The country’s strategic advantages position it as a living example of how human capacity can be converted into tangible national growth.
This model illustrates the next chapter of EdTech — moving from supporting classrooms to shaping entire economies. By enabling instructors to thrive, integrating informal work into formal systems, and producing data that informs policy, Ostathi demonstrates that human expertise is a renewable resource capable of driving prosperity at scale.
