Kufranjah (Arabic: كفرنجة) is one of the districts of Ajloun governorate, Jordan.[1] [2]
In 2011, Prince William of the British Royal Family visited Kufranjah to meet refugee communities on a Tour of Jordan and Israel.[3] [4]
In 2021, wildfires heavily damaged forests in Aljoun, prompting a movement aiming to plant 10 million trees in Jordan by 2031. The epicenter of the "10 million trees" movement began in Kufranjah.[5]
