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.

Crisis-affected populations require continued assistance to address basic humanitarian and protection needs.

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.

This contribution supports the development and delivery of pavilion spaces and programming at the International Union for Conservation of Nature World Conservation Congress 2020.
