January 2020 - With the Syria crisis in its ninth year, Jordan continues to host up to 1.3 million Syrian refugees in camps and host communities, of whom over 650,000 are registered. Additional populations of concern include 58,000 Iraqis, as well as a small number of unregistered refugees, including those from Yemen. Crisis-affected populations require continued assistance to address basic humanitarian and protection needs.

With GAC’s support, CARE Canada is providing basic needs and protection support to refugees and vulnerable Jordanians. The intervention aims to reach 32,300 individuals. Project activities include: (1) providing holistic and gender-focused case management to vulnerable populations in the community centres and/or through community outreach; (2) providing psychosocial support (PSS) services, peer support and one-on-one counselling to Syrian and non-Syrian refugees, and host community members, especially women and children; (3) increasing capacity of Women’s Leadership Councils through training, support, and an internship program; and (4) providing emergency cash assistance to the most vulnerable households.

This project focuses on addressing the critical gap in the basic medical training of women and men uniformed medical personnel deployed to the top five high-threat UN peacekeeping missions, in order to limit injuries and fatalities of peacekeepers when they occur. This training works to encompass the physical dimensions of Level 1 medical assistance and the psychological dimensions of trauma, potentially reducing the consequences of combat stress reactions and post-traumatic stress disorders, with a particular emphasis on responses to sexual and gender-based violence. Project activities include: (1) conducting a needs assessment in each of the eight countries (Burkina Faso, Chad, Ethiopia, Ghana, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Togo); (2) tailoring the training materials to specific gaps identified in the needs assessments; (3) delivering a training of trainers workshop; (4) delivering eight training courses to women and men uniformed medical personnel; and (5) designing and implementing an online platform to provide advice and mentoring to those trained participants.
