Chapter IV: the Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid
Chapter IV The Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid and Mafraq – A Socio-Economic Perspective With the beginning of the first quarter of 2011, Syrian refugees poured into Jordan, fleeing the instability of their country in the wake of the Arab Spring. Throughout the two years that followed, their numbers doubled and had a clear impact on the bor- dering governorates, namely Mafraq and Irbid, which share a border with Syria ex- tending some 375 kilometers and which host the largest portion of refugees. Official statistics estimated that at the end of 2013 there were around 600,000 refugees, of whom 170,881 and 124,624 were hosted by the local communities of Mafraq and Ir- bid, respectively. This means that the two governorates are hosting around half of the UNHCR-registered refugees in Jordan. The accompanying official financial burden on Jordan, as estimated by some inter- national studies, stood at around US$2.1 billion in 2013 and is expected to hit US$3.2 billion in 2014. This chapter discusses the socio-economic impact of Syrian refugees on the host communities in both governorates. Relevant data has been derived from those studies conducted for the same purpose, in addition to field visits conducted by the research team and interviews conducted with those in charge, local community members and some refugees in these two governorates. 1. Overview of Mafraq and Irbid Governorates It is relevant to give a brief account of the administrative structure, demographics and financial conditions of the two governorates. Mafraq Governorate Mafraq governorate is situated in the north-eastern part of the Kingdom and it borders Iraq (east and north), Syria (north) and Saudi Arabia (south and east).

W OVERVIE JORDAN FACTS AND FIGURES 2020 JANUARY – DECEMBER 2020 SUMMARY The year 2020 has been one of uncommon challenges. In Jordan, despite measures imposed to curtail the spread of COVID-19, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) continued its work and maintained its humanitarian activities in several Governorates in the country. ICRC teams were able to support measures aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19 especially in places of detention. Furthermore, the ICRC provided support to some families of missing persons; supported vulnerable Syrian refugees as well as host communities through livelihood projects and rehabilitated water infrastructure, while it equally trained engineers and operators to run them to ensure that host communities and Syrian refugees gain access to clean water. Some of these activities were carried out in partnership with the Jordan Red Crescent Society (JRCS), to whom we provided technical and material support to enable the JRCS deliver its humanitarian services more effectively, including in its COVID-19 response. One key aspect of our activities was the provision of equipment and facilities to the JRCS hospital. To strengthen the capacity of the health system in the management of COVID-19 infections, the ICRC provided Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and some medical supplies, while it offered training to some medical professionals on how best to respond to emergencies and enhance capacity in physical rehabilitation and provision of healthcare in detention. Consistent with its obligations to promote knowledge of International Humanitarian Law (IHL), the ICRC provided training for members of the Armed and Security Forces in Jordan and participating officers of the Police, Gendarmerie and Civil Defence (PSD), in addition to convening roundtable discussions towards raising awareness on a variety of humanitarian issues with civil society and the media.

Syrian Refugees in Host Communities
Syrian Refugees in Host Communities Key Informant Interviews / District Profiling January 2014 This project has been implemented with the support of: Syrian Refugees in Host Communities: Key Informant Interviews and District Profiling January 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As the Syrian crisis extends into its third year, the number of Syrian refugees in Jordan continues to increase with the vast majority living in host communities outside of planned camps.1 This assessment was undertaken to gain an in-depth understanding of issues related to sector specific and municipal services. In total, 1,445 in-depth interviews were conducted in September and October 2013 with key informants who were identified as knowledgeable about the 446 surveyed communities. The information collected is disaggregated by key characteristics including access to essential services by Syrian refugees, and underlying factors such as the type and location of their shelters. This project was carried out to inform more effective humanitarian planning and interventions which target the needs of Syrian refugees in Jordanian host communities. The study provides a multi-sector profile for the 19 districts of northern Jordan where the majority of Syrian refugees reside2, focusing on access to municipal and other essential services by Syrian refugees, including primary access to basic services; barriers to accessing social services; trends over time; and the prioritised needs of refugees by sector. The project is funded by the British Embassy of Amman with the support of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). The greatest challenge faced by Syrian refugees is access to cash, specifically cash for rent, followed by access to food assistance and non-food items for the winter season.

Jordan: a Need Assessment
TECHNICAL REPORT Cutaneous leishmaniasis in Jordan: a need assessment Amman, South Shuneh, Al-Azraq, Ajloun (Jordan), 14-19 May 2017 Objectives The overall objective of the mission was to carry out a situation analysis on cutaneous leishmaniasis in the country, following a request by MoH Jordan through WHO Jordan, as originally proposed and planned in the Joint Collaboration Programme 2016-2017 between WHO and MoH. Its aims included to review the epidemiology of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Jordan and the control measures currently implemented in the country, and to provide MoH Jordan with advice in regard to the above. The mission was led by an expert in leishmaniasis, Prof. Riadh Ben-Ismail, from "Institut Pasteur" in Tunis, as WHO Temporary Adviser, accompanied by Dr Albis Francesco Gabrielli, Regional Adviser, NTD, WHO/EMRO, and by Dr Lora AlSawalha and Dr Akram Wajih, WHO/Jordan. The mission consisted of meetings in Amman, travel to endemic areas and meetings with local health authorities, and was concluded by a national workshop attended by all actors working in leishmaniasis in Jordan. As an outcome of the workshop, recommendations were formulated. 1. BACKGROUND Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic in some geographical areas of Jordan, where its epidemiology and distribution are generally well known. The disease is known in Jordanian dialect as "gwedha" - a reference to the traditional treatment of the lesions, based on heating or burning). The most common form is zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis due to L. major, present in several rural foci especially along the River Jordan valley (lowlands) and the desert areas in southern Jordan (vector: Ph.
