What the numbers say
In 2023, Jordan's net official development assistance received (constant 2023 US$) rose 35.7% on 2022 (from US$2.09 billion to US$2.83 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1993 to 2022), the average change was +8.8% and a typical year strayed about 32.9% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.8 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 165.9% in 1979 and the biggest yearly fall was 56.1% in 2004. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2014 to 2023 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
