Upon arrival in Jordan, a total of 640 PRI (131 families) sought shelter inside and outside Palestine refugee camps in the Kingdom. During the last quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004, UNRWA provided in-kind and cash assistance to PRI to support their resilience during their refuge. After this period however, the Agency could not sustain this support due to budgetary constraints. Consequently, to ensure the continuation of assistance, UNHCR agreed to cover PRI’s essential costs from July 2004 until December 2008, after which both parties signed annual agreements that extended support until December 2018. It is noted that UNHCR agreed with UNRWA to provide PRI with assistance similar to what was given to the families enrolled in the social safety net Programme (SSNP) with the funds being covered by UNHCR. Each person was eligible to receive the following items on quarterly basis: 3 kg of rice, 3 kg of sugar, 3 L of sun flower oil, 1.5kg of whole milk, 3 kg of two kinds of pulses (broad beans/chick peas/lentils), in addition to 7JD/person per quarter. The estimation of this food basket was approximately JD 21 (per person per quarter) based on UNRWA’s purchase costs (comparable to 35 JD based on the local market). It was agreed with UNHCR to provide the assistance in cash modality instead of the mixed assistance for the integrity of refugees in 2015.
The UNRWA-UNHCR partnership has allowed PRI to receive cash assistance on quarterly basis to cover their needs, including food and non-food items. When sufficient funds have been available, it has also allowed PRI to receive winterization assistance in 2015 and 2016 (once a year and the value was about 200 JD/family). In 2017, winterization was offered at the value of JD 65 per person to take into account the increasing prices of energy and the needs of PRIs to stay warm.
UNRWA, almost entirely funded by voluntary contributions, is currently facing severe financial constraints. Its operating budget for 2019 is US$ 1.2 billion, and this has not factored in UNHCR’s recent decision to no longer assist PRI due to their own budgetary situation, leaving this small yet one of the most vulnerable population without financial support and access to essential and life-saving services. Therefore, it is essential that the 156 PRI (34 families) recorded in Jordan as of January 2019 continue to receive assistance to cover their most pressing needs and thus to decrease their chances of falling into abject poverty. Accordingly, with this concept note, UNRWA is seeking OCHA’s support to provide PRI in Jordan with cash and winterization assistance for 12 months starting in March 2019.

Similarly, camp residents themselves are voicing their significant concerns in relation to Tdh’s possible (temporary) departure and the subsequent loss of access to the services. Tdh has over the past months approached several donors to seek funding to sustain its interventions in EJC. Concretely, Tdh has together with DRC approached ECHO, who have indicated that funding may likely be available as of January 2020 and who will visit EJC later in the month. Also, Tdh will apply for the second allocation of the JHF once made available – funding for this would however also not be available before January 2020.
In order to maintain its operations and presence through the end of 2019, Tdh requests for a reserve allocation to cover a two-month cost extension of its current project under JHF. To ensure continuation of the operations, a total of US$ 37,783 would be required. A breakdown of the required funds is provided in the detailed budget.

In particular, IOCC will target 1,090 refugee WGBM with hearing and visual impairments/disabilities in Azraq to receive secondary healthcare and rehabilitation services through diagnostic services by medical professionals, provision of rehabilitative assistive devices, and/or specialized medical treatment (such as surgeries or medications).
To address needs, IOCC will utilize a community-based approach that considers the specific vulnerabilities of persons with disabilities (PWDs) to implement the following activities by IOCC’s specialized disability staff, doctors/medical consultants, and volunteers:
- Select 8 refugees as community-based rehabilitation workers (CBRWs) to implement IOCC’s community-based rehabilitation approach and support activities
- Train CBRWs on community-based rehabilitation in partnership with local organization and disability training institution, Al Hussein Society (AHS) - Jordan Center for Training amp Inclusion, and provide disability in-service training led by IOCC specialists
- Provide diagnostic and rehabilitation services to refugee WGBM with visual impairments/disabilities and provide assistive devices (glasses) to 800 cases
- Provide diagnostic and rehabilitation services to refugee WGBM with hearing impairments/disabilities and provide assistive devices (hearing aids) to 25 cases
- Conduct check-up appointments via IOCC’s audiologist and/or optometrist with 200 refugee WGBM who previously received assistive devices and support repairs and maintenance of their devices, as well as provision of additional hearing aid batteries
- Coordinate consultations with an ophthalmologist through IOCC’s visual clinic (approximately three days per month) to conduct screening for those needing specialized services (including refugee WGBM who optometrists identified for specialist referrals) to address visual impairments/disabilities
- Provide specialized medication for 425 refugee WGBM with visual needs
- Facilitate surgeries (including transportation, logistics, and payment) for up to 65 refugee WGBM in need of specialized treatment [i.e. for cataracts, retinal detachment or pars plana vitrectomy, pterygium removal, squint (strabismus), or other types] at specialized hospitals in Amman with the ophthalmologist
- Follow-up and provide post-operative care in the camp for refugee WGBM who undergo surgeries through the ophthalmologist
- Develop a “master sheet “(by the ophthalmologist) of refugees in need of specialized ophthalmological services and coordinate with UNHCR and other health actors to provide services and avoid duplication
- Increase community knowledge of disabilities through community awareness sessions for 120 refugee WGBM and
- Hold recreational activities for 50 refugee WGBM in the camp, with and without disabilities, to raise community awareness on disabilities, project activities, and OCHA JHF support for International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
These activities will provide needed, specialized secondary healthcare for cases who require appointments with a specialist (ophthalmologist) and potentially surgery who have been waiting months or years, as well as to diagnostic services for disability cases on the camp’s waiting list.
Activities fit with the allocation’s health sector priorities, meet crucial identified needs in Azraq Camp, fill existing gaps for a particularly vulnerable population with specific needs, complement the work of other disability actors in Azraq, leverage IOCC’s other funding for disability programming in the camp and expand services, build the resilience of camp-based PWDs, and support sustainability of activities for this population.International Orthodox Christian CharitiesInternational Orthodox Christian CharitiesJordan Humanitarian FundLoren HyattCountry Representative+962 790220592lhyatt@iocc.orgAfnan TawbaProject Officer+962 795697187atawba@iocc.orgShereen Al-HadaadFinance Coordinator+962 6586 6455salhaddad@iocc.orgZarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Health93634.50206365.50300000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundInternational Orthodox Christian Charities300000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundInternational Orthodox Christian Charities635.05International Orthodox Christian CharitiesUnited Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/H/INGO/12878United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsCash-for-Health Assistance to Strengthen Resilience in Syrian Refugees and Vulnerable Jordanians in JordanThis project is a continuation of JOR-18/DDA-3560/SA2/H/INGO/10675.

The intervention targets a total of 6,285 direct beneficiaries and an additional 639 individuals indirectly, bringing the total number of people impacted to 6,924. The project consists of two interlinked outputs. As part of Output 1.1, DRC will provide structured activities focusing on GBV prevention for women and adolescent girls within a Women and Girls Safe Space (WGSS) in Village 2 and for men and other community members at block level. This will be complemented with GBV awareness sessions throughout Azraq camp, as well as survivor-focused case management within the WGSS. For Output 1.2, DRC will provide women within the WGSS with the opportunity to take part in a range of livelihoods activities, including Cash for Work, Home-Based Business grants and soft skills trainings. Adolescent girls aged 16 and above will be able to take part in a mentorship program. DRC will also provide multi-purpose cash assistance to 1,400 female-headed households as a response to the 2020 outbreak of COVID-19. DRC will coordinate the proposed intervention with other relevant stakeholders in Azraq camp for stronger impact, including IRC, who will place a case manager within DRC’s WGSS to carry out survivor-focused GBV case management.

In order to achieve this, the project will create models of safe spaces targeting children with and without disabilities and their families to generate good practices for other and encourage their involvement in the wider community and will provide assistive tools to enable them to be integrated into their societies. The project will also strive to change attitudes and perceptions towards children with disabilities through awareness raising and protection interventions. The project will target children with physical and simple intellectual disabilities as they are the most prevalent types of disabilities in the targeted governorates (as well as children without disabilities). Zarqa and Karak have the highest rate of persons with disabilities on their territory, in addition to a consistent presence of Syrian refugees. The planned activities thus aim to target beneficiaries from both the local and the refugee community who are effectively in need of support as concerns issues related to protection, GBV and inclusion. In this sense, the first phase of community-based intervention will inform and involve the collectivity, with and without disabilities, together with a capacity-building session for the CBOs’ staff. In addition, avoiding the establishment of ‘new’ child-friendly spaces, the project will support existing mainstream programmes at 4 local CBOs, in order to make them inclusive for children with disabilities: inside each CBO involved in the action, a dedicated room for children with and without disabilities will be equipped in order to run specific activities for them. The aim is to create a " safe space" only for children where they can interact freely without any stigma or fear. This space will host up to 50 children (both with and without disabilities). Furthermore, in order to raise awareness at individual, family and community level on protection issues, 50 sessions about related topics will be organized and will target children with and without disabilities and their parents. to bring their local communities one step closer to accessibility and inclusion.
The last activity intends, after a proper assessment of the most urgent cases, to provide a total of 100 children with disabilities with appropriate assistive tools or rehabilitation services, through an agreement between the partners and the clinics operating in the target areas.

The proposed project will have a dual approach of preventing children from entering into contact with the law, and responding to those who are in contact with the law and deprived of their liberty. Throughout the intervention, key stakeholders in four nested levels (i.e. individual children family community and governmental institutions) will be targeted. Working comprehensively at these levels will provide leverage impacts in building a protective environment for refugee and Jordanian children that either are at risk of entering into or are in contact with the law, as not only children themselves will be able to seek and receive adequate support, but also their families and the wider society will be more understanding and better able to respond to the children’s needs.
The prevention component aims at creating a protective environment for children at risk from entering into contact with the law. Awareness raising activities will target children, youth, parents and other community members on risk factors leading to juvenile delinquency, children’s rights, and on available services of support that enable at-risk children to move away from negative coping mechanisms. Previously established and trained community-based committees, including youth committees, will be trained on the topics mentioned above, to develop a set of age and gender friendly key messages and communication materials targeting their peers and community stakeholders. Information on available relevant services will be provided through a child friendly service mapping document that the networks can use in their initiatives. Children identified as particularly at risk of entering into conflict with the law will be referred for case management support. Building on prior joint efforts with the Juvenile Police Department (JPD), officers will be supported to carry out child-friendly, interactive awareness sessions targeting children in schools on juvenile justice topics and JPD’s role.
The response component aims at protecting the rights of children who are in contact with the law and deprived of their liberty. The project will provide on-the-job support to TRC staff in jointly delivering tailored restorative protection services inside the TRCs. A team of experienced case management staff will coach and mentor the TRC social workers to provide case management support to children, in particular the most vulnerable and at risk that have been in the TRC for a longer period of time. This may include support on drafting Social Inquiry Reports in line with the best interests principle, conducting case conferences, and training on age and gender appropriate communication. TRC staff will be trained and supported to implement a set a rehabilitation services based on a program developed and piloted by Tdh, including PSS activities, certified vocational training and life skills. A tailored aftercare support service will be provided to released children to help them reintegrate into their communities and avoid re-offending. The project will also support JPD in facilitating child-friendly diversion to dejudicialize cases with appropriate involvement of alleged offenders, victims and witnesses. Using existing community networks, the project proposes to conduct targeted initiatives to sensitize members of urban communities in Irbid and Zarqa on the rights of children in conflict with the law, and the benefits of reintegration.
A total of 2711 persons will be reached through the full length of the proposed project, including 1143 boys, 425 girls, 581 men, and 562 women.Terre des Hommes LausanneTerre des Hommes LausanneJordan Humanitarian FundBlerta SpahiuTdh Country Representative+962797028174blerta.spahiu@tdh.chAnton Roy DharmalingamTdh Quality Accountability Coordinator+962775732211antonroy.dharmalingam@tdh.chMei Lian TjiaTdh Program Coordinator+962779899552meilian.tjia@tdh.chCéline Lefebvre Tdh Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Regional Head+ 41786530453celine.lefebvre@tdh.chSahar DOUSHAQ HR-Admin Coordinator 00962798899479sahar.doushaq@tdh.chMarta Alberici Programme Coordinator - Jordan Palestine+962 77989 9552marta.alberici@tdh.chWadia SafiaFinance Manager+962 775447400wadia.safia@tdh.chCarol StephanGrants Management Officer+962 775721144carol.stephan@tdh.comAmman31.91905968 35.92902353Irbid32.55798676 35.84675724Zarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Protection111396.37223525.61334921.98Jordan Humanitarian FundTerre des Hommes Lausanne239937.58Jordan Humanitarian FundTerre des Hommes Lausanne94984.40Jordan Humanitarian FundTerre des Hommes LausanneJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/P/NGO/12721United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsResponding to gaps in SGBV services across East Amman, Mafraq, Aqaba and the South of JordanThe proposed is a protection sector project that aims at Preventing and responding to sexual and Gender Based Violence (REF 1.7) via innovative prevention activities, that will ultimately respond to JRP priorities “to expand and strengthen national and sub-national protection systems that meet the international protection and social protection needs of vulnerable groups in the governorates most affected by the Syria crisis”. The project will address the programmatic priorities and build on previous OCHA projects, with the aspiration of bridging the gaps and innovatively responding to the priorities identified through implementing a Holistic SGBV Prevention Program.
Acknowledging the fact that approaching SGBV from the perspective of innovation, will result in finding new ideas that drive solutions. JRF designed this project utilizing innovative prevention techniques that are based on international best practices, as well as on JRF’s extensive and rich experience in offering women, adolescents, child protection and empowerment programs (both prevention and intervention), specializing in women and adolescents who are at-risk and/or are survivors of SGBV. JRF will implement this project in three main areas highly affected by the crisis, and are underserved regions of East Amman, Mafraq, Aqaba and through an SGBV mobile outreach unit targeting underserved areas in the South. The project will reach 3710 beneficiaries including women, girls, men and boys.
JRF designed the proposed project based on behavioral change approach that promotes empowerment of women and adolescent who are at-risk and/or survivors of SGBV to prevent occurrence and re-occurrence of SGBV incidents. Throughout this project, JRF aims to achieve the key standard indicators: 1) WGBM are sensitized on SGBV through awareness raising and outreach activities, and 2) service providers, humanitarian actors and government counterpart trained on SGBV.
Below is a brief overview of the proposed project pillars:
1.Offering women, and adolescents innovative empowerment prevention focused programs that will empower them with knowledge, skills, tools, and attitudes, to address concerns, mitigate impact, and prevent occurrence of all forms of SGBV protection threats, while promoting positive social behavior, social-emotional wellbeing.
2.Transferring knowledge and expertise to service providers and humanitarian actors (governmental and non-governmental) through specialized SGBV Prevention Curriculum and training program to enhance their knowledge and response on SGBV best practices and methods of implementation.
3.Building the capacities of project local partners and project team on advanced SGBV prevention art techniques.
4.Forming “Women Committees” to support in the outreach and mobilization of local community, as well as co-facilitate and organize SGBV thematic awareness raising activities/events on SGBV protection and prevention in Amman, Mafraq, Aqaba and the South. The thematic activities/events will cover different topics, not limited to: gender equity, right to life, child marriage, sexual exploitation, and domestic violence.

Children that are unaccompanied, from disadvantaged communities, or are refugees, tend to be more vulnerable to getting in conflict with the law and have inadequate access and awareness on their right to legal services. The poverty pockets of East Amman and Zarqa will be prioritized as there is a shortage of legal services and assistance within these areas, which the Syrian crisis has further exacerbated. In addition, they have limited to no access to litigation, resulting in unlawful detention, imprisonment, institutionalization, and a juvenile record. This project aims to increase protection and access to legal services for at-risk children and children in conflict with the law, including those with disabilities. It will operate by raising awareness through media, street law methodology, legal consultation, mediation, and litigation.
In addition to ARDD's already freely accessible services, this project will provide additional in-depth legal support to at least 1000 children. Based on our longstanding experience with providing legal aid to people residing in disadvantaged communities it is our experience that roughly 10 % of our consultations end up in court. For children in conflict with the law we will push for diversion orders and alternative measures to a custodial sentence. The latter will be further made possible through ARDD's assessment of what additional support our contracted lawyers require for achieving this goal and through networking and advocacy with relevant governmental and judicial institutions. The street law sessions in disadvantaged communities, a media campaign regarding children's rights and the accessibility and availability of free legal support, also in order to prevent conflict with the law, are crucial as this will enable children and their parents to find appropriate legal support.
ARDD will conduct reporting in targeted communities with at-risk children, caretakers, and people in the neighborhood in order to assess the major issues of concern with regard to children’s access to justice. This will include consultations with various stakeholders to analyse existing referral mechanisms with the intention to develop them further based on the needs of the community. The needs assessment provides the foundation for the initiatives including the access to justice sessions and Psychosocial Sessions, which will reach a minimum of 1500 beneficiaries and aim to increase awareness of children's rights, availability of free and safe legal support and strengthen community-based safety nets.
In order to ensure the coherence of this project with child protection priorities at the national level and establish sustainable efforts towards ensuring children’s access to justice, ARDD will dedicate time to effectively and maintain communication with the Interagency Child Protection Working Group in Jordan to ultimately contribute towards the identification of access to justice for refugee children and unaccompanied and separated children as a long-term priority. Moreover, in order to foster sustainable recognition for children's rights ARDD aims to develop a framework of regular communication with judicial bodies and local and national government actors in order to find alternatives to pre-trial detention, reporting children’s cases straight to trial court, discontinuing probation officers in children’s cases,access to specific services for children with disabilities, and inclusion of social workers within the judicial process through a consultative process.Arab Renaissance for Democracy and DevelopmentArab Renaissance for Democracy and DevelopmentJordan Humanitarian FundSouzan MoharabHead of Aid Department+962 775777077somohareb@ardd-jo.orgSamar MuharebCEO962 6 4617277smuhareb@ardd-jo.orgLobna KhatibHead of Finance and Administration962 6 4617277lkhatib@ardd-jo.orgZainab KhalilProgram Manager+962 6 4617277zkhalil@ardd-jo.org Al Mafraq31.19290323 35.69146862Amman31.91905968 35.92902353Zarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Protection104109.59145890.41250000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundArab Renaissance for Democracy and Development200000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundArab Renaissance for Democracy and Development50000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundArab Renaissance for Democracy and Development8885.31Arab Renaissance for Democracy and DevelopmentUnited Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/P/NGO/12955United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsINCLUSION OF CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES PROGRAMThe success of JOHUD′s work is derived from its community-based presence and capacity-building approach, which is consolidated through a network of 53 Community Development Centres (CDCs) and another 7 entities spread Throughout Jordan, JOHUD works directly with communities to improve livelihoods and ensure that everyone has access to the basics necessary for a full and healthy life
The overall idea of the project is to integrate children with disabilities (CWD) with other children without disabilities into the programs provided by JOHUD’s Early Childhood and disability Program in an effective and practical manner through trained and qualified staff on the basis of CWD inclusion concepts and approaches.which aim to prevention of protection concerns, protection risks for CWD.
The project will implement interventions in a holistic and comprehensive approach, which serve individuals with disabilities, parents and caregivers, and the host community.
The project objectives:
1 builds the capacities of children with disabilities, to integrate them in host community systems.
2 raise awareness about the importance of inclusion.
3 increase people with disabilities independently through rehabilitation services.
Interventions:
1- Early intervention ( portage program)
Early age is the age of defining children’s future and the age when children learn the skills that contribute to their wellbeing. However, due to the limited services and resources, many cases are not identified and served, for this project will contribute to higher identification and services for the targeted children. JOHUD has the first-hand experience in Jordan when it comes to Portage Program as we started implementing it since 1997.
this project will adapt Portage Program for children with developmental delays and at-risk children as the provided solution that combines prevention and developing their cognitive skills. Portage Program is a Family-Focused intervention that addresses families’ priorities, that involves parents and/or family members taking care of the children, yet it is structured teaching that relies on small steps approach, and it is a child-led play that helps in identifying individual interests, strengths, and emerging skills.
2-Rehabilitation unit
Since there is a huge need for rehabilitation services around the kingdom especially in the project location Ghour alsafi. On the other hand, the available services are highly expensive, and vulnerable families cannot afford it. Under this service, JOHUD will provide rehabilitation sessions for PWD including children. These sessions empower people with disabilities to become more resilience and independent, as well it raises awareness and skills for parents and caregivers on supporting PWD and they are able to implement physiotherapy activities at their homes. Through this service each case will attend 15-20 sessions according to their evaluation, there will be 2 physiotherapists ( 1male, 1 female) will cover this service in each unit. In addition, we have to mention that there will be a follow up with the benefited cases to evaluate their improvement. this proposal is focused on PROTECTION and RESILIENCE IMPROVEMENT, through a strengthening of the Public Protection systems focused on the most vulnerable population, contributing in providing quality child protection services to the most vulnerable children in Jordan.

The targeted HH (70% Syrian and 30% Jordanian) 1) live in sub-standard shelters, 2) present high debt and monthly expenditure per capita, and 3) have family members facing specific protection risks, such as single women, people with disabilities (PWD) or elderly people. In each location, Caritas has established centres with previous experience in shelter maintenance and protection (namely, referrals and case management). The caseload is distributed across these centres to ensure needs-based and timely implementation.
Currently, Caritas (CACH and CAJO) is implementing an OCHA-funded project (JOR-18/DDA-3560/SA2/Sh./INGO/10660) on shelter winterization for vulnerable refugees and host communities in the same target areas as this proposed project. The proposed project will act as a continuation with an additional focus on protection mainstreaming, women at-risk, elderly people and PWD. The project will upgrade sub-standard shelters through replacement, repair or maintenance work and prepare the beneficiaries for the coming winter season 2019/2020, with some of the shelter works including moulding repair, roofing insulation and painting better carried out in dry weather conditions.
The selection of HH starts by analysing vulnerability assessment framework (VAF) data captured through Caritas centres’ outreach work in the 4 targeted governorates to identify HH that fit the selection criteria. Referrals from the Working Groups or the Ministry of Social Development can be included if they fit the proposed action’s criteria. A gender-balanced team of 1 caseworker and 1 field monitor per centre/governorate will conduct home visits to confirm eligibility and shelter upgrade needs. Once the beneficiaries are identified, caseworkers will hold awareness raising induction sessions on beneficiaries’ entitlements, Caritas’ and contracted parties’ Code of Conduct, and feedback mechanisms. During shelter assessments, technical staff (1 engineer, 2 technical assistants) confirm the HH selection and signs off on the works to be carried out.
Based on previous experience, Caritas will conduct one bidding processes per governorate to identify one suitable contractor per governorate (4 in total). In each bidding process, contractors will be invited to submit offers based on tender documents and bills of quantities and are selected based on a minimum of 3 offers from 3 different contractors.
For each shelter, technical staff agrees in writing with tenants, owners and contractors on the prospective maintenance works. A full-time legal advisor will support negotiations with property owners to secure tenure for all shelters for at least 1 year and reducing the monthly rent by 10% in line with the shelter sector guidelines, if applicable. During and after the upgrades, caseworkers and monitors will conduct spot checks and avail themselves for questions, complaints and other feedback. Technical staff will conduct technical acceptance checks in the presence of all stakeholders, following to which invoices can be submitted by the contractor. Lastly, a survey to understand satisfaction rates, protection concerns, and unintended negative effects will be conducted and disaggregated by age, gender and diversity factors (nationality, disability, gender of head of household).
Identified HH with additional specific needs that fall outside the scope of the proposed action will benefit from internal and external referrals to appropriate services.Caritas SwitzerlandCaritas SwitzerlandCaritas JordanJordan Humanitarian FundTheresa StienenProgramme Manager Jordan+962 79 634 2661 tstienen@caritas.chPirmin PfulgFinance Officer+41 41 419 22 97ppfulg@caritas.ch Al Mafraq31.19290323 35.69146862Amman31.91905968 35.92902353Irbid32.55798676 35.84675724Zarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Emergency Shelter and NFI187712.63116626.19304338.82Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas Switzerland243471.06Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas Switzerland60867.76Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas Switzerland863.06Caritas SwitzerlandUnited Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/Sh./INGO/12968United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsImproved Access to Shelter for Vulnerable Syrian Refugees in Jordan.This project aims at providing adequate housing for Syrian refugees and vulnerable members of the Jordanian host communities who live in sub-standard housing conditions and face difficulties in paying the rent, by means of shelter upgrades and financial support to cover housing rental costs, including emergency cash for rent assistance for protection and threat of eviction cases. In order to prioritise cases, NRC uses UNHCR’s Vulnerability Assessment Framework (VAF) and NRC’s Integrated Assessment (IA). If vulnerability data is not available, NRC conducts a full vulnerability assessment and initially determines the recommended shelter support modality for each household, depending on the specific needs of the household, location and conditions of the shelter. In order to confirm the support modality, NRC conducts a follow-up technical validation visit, looking at technical and physical conditions of the shelter and to confirm landlords’ willingness to participate in the project.
Shelter support modalities offered through this project include: i) flexible (FLEX) shelter package (renovations + rent-free occupancy) and ii) emergency cash for rent (C4R). The NRC C4R response targets households at imminent risk of eviction or under severe protection risks, offering them support in finding alternative housing, and paying rent for a 6-month period in the new property. The new shelter has to comply with NRC Minimum Shelter Standards with regards to, among other considerations, minimum size of the shelter and toilet access.
Conditional cash grants are paid directly from NRC to the landlords and range between 845 and 1,185 USD.
Under the flexible shelter package (FLEX), targeted households receive support ranging from 1,270 to 2,260 USD, depending on vulnerability and household size. The financial support provided includes: a) a minimum amount for shelter repairs in exchange for at least 3 months of free rent and b) an amount to cover rent costs for an extra period of time. Overall, the FLEX support provides households with: 1) improved shelter 2) at least 3 months of rent-free occupancy (waived by the landlord) 3) at least 6 month of rent-free occupancy (paid by NRC). Household eligible for FLEX support are encouraged to use NRC’s support in a flexible manner, negotiating with landlords the ratio of renovations and rent-free occupancy to increase benefits received. NRC facilitates negotiations by preparing Bills of Quantities (BoQ) to specify the repairs/upgrades to be done and their cost and holding landlords accountable for the delivery and quality of the renovations. After all parties agree and a lease agreement is signed between the landlord and the tenant, NRC, the tenant and the landlord sign tripartite agreements clarifying roles and responsibilities in the delivery of the shelter support. Upon signature of the agreement, NRC transfers the amount earmarked for repairs to the landlord, who is responsible for executing the works as agreed. Once works are completed, the negotiated rent-free occupancy period begins, with NRC transferring the conditional cash grant to cover the additional months of rent. Based on previous experience, on average households negotiate a 14-month rent-free period from both landlords and NRC.
The FLEX approach is regarded by NRC as a major step in efficiency and beneficiary participation, since rent cots for the project have decreased from 210 USD per month to 130 USD per month between 2017 and now. In addition, families have the opportunity to negotiate, move houses and reach better deals on their own terms, which grants more satisfaction and empowerment. Finally, in order to ensure its shelter support is fully inclusive, NRC supports households with Persons with Disability (PWD) by providing them with inclusion kits. The kits are used by NRC for shelter adaptations aimed at facilitating PWD’s movement in and around the house and at enhancing their independence in Activities of Daily Living.Norwegian Refugee CouncilNorwegian Refugee CouncilJordan Humanitarian FundAmy SchmidtHead of Programme+962770 497033 amy.schmidt@nrc.noRodrigo MeloShelter PM+962770497057rodrigo.melo@nrc.noHala JaberFinance Manager+962770497001hala.jaber@nrc.noChiara FabrizioGrants Manager – Jordan+962770497033 chiara.fabrizio@nrc.noAl Mafraq31.19290323 35.69146862Irbid32.55798676 35.84675724Emergency Shelter and NFI175000.00175000.00350000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundNorwegian Refugee Council350000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundNorwegian Refugee CouncilJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/WASH/INGO/12699United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsSafe and equitable access to private latrine services for men, women, boys, and girls with disabilities in Azraq CampAction Against Hunger aims to increase and improve access to safe and equitable sanitation services for people with disabilities (PWDs) in Azraq Refugee Camp by constructing private latrine facilities inside shelters. This project directly addresses gaps in safe, culturally and gender appropriate, and accessible sanitation facilities as identified:

This project will build upon Action Against Hunger’s extensive experience as the primary WASH service provider within Azraq Camp, and will contribute to the overall improved health and wellbeing of the Syrian refugees in the camp. This proposed intervention will also increase access to short-term employment opportunities during the construction of the private latrines through mobilizing incentive-based volunteer (IBV), thereby contributing to improving the economic conditions for refugees living in the camp.Action Contre la faimAction Contre la faimJordan Humanitarian FundJulie CalafatCountry Director+962 (0) 778 304 474cd@jo-actionagainsthunger.orgKendra HughbanksDeputy Country Director Programs+ 962 (0) 778 465 150dcdprograms@jo-actionagainsthunger.orgMorgan CarcelFinance Head of Department+ 962 (0) 778 465 100financehod@jo-actionagainsthunger.orgZarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Water Sanitation Hygiene134873.05194727.95329601.00Jordan Humanitarian FundAction Contre la faim240000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundAction Contre la faim60000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundAction Contre la faim29601.00Jordan Humanitarian FundAction Contre la faimJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/WASH/INGO/12907United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsImproving safe and equitable access to WASH infrastructure and knowledge of safe hygiene practices for vulnerable Syrian refugees and Jordanians, including vulnerable outreach communities in Irbid, Amman, and the southern governoratesThe proposed project responds to WASH needs of 480 vulnerable Syrian refugee and Jordanian households living in ITS and in substandard host community accommodation. The project will complement an ongoing INTERSOS project funded by EU MADAD, and will allow INTERSOS to address additional urgent WASH needs.
Recent INTERSOS assessments in ITS located in the catchment areas of INTERSOS field offices in Irbid, Amman and Karak have identified continued dependence on untreated trucked water and a deterioration (or absence) of sanitation facilities. Safe water storage continues to the be one of the most significant concern for ITS households, due to inadequate quantity of clean water storage containers, leading to further risk of water contamination before consumption.
INTERSOS has identified inadequate or absent WASH infrastructure as a widespread problem in host community housing occupied (usually rented) by vulnerable refugees and Jordanians, with many of these households also depending on informal (trucked) water supplies or municipal water supply that is compromised (in terms of quality by inadequate plumbing, and many of these households also lacking basic sanitation facilities.
Among households with inadequate WASH infrastructure, people with disabilities (especially children with disabilities) and older adults are disproportionately affected, as even existing facilities are not well-adapted to their needs, particularly in terms of physical accessibility infrastructure such as seating support and hand rails. The project will ensure that WASH infrastructure interventions are tailored to maximize access to these individuals, through a detailed household assessments. Furthermore, protection concerns for women and girls will also be addressed, especially through provision of female/male designated latrines in ITS settings, and installation of solar powered lights on latrines in ITSs to mitigate risks for women and girls (and boys) when accessing WASH services after dark.
INTERSOS will use its Initial Assessment tool, based on the VAF, to shortlist households for further WASH assessment. A detailed WASH assessment will then be conducted in each shortlisted household (see tool in annex 2), and the data used for final household selection. Selection criteria will include access to water and sanitation, protection risks, presence of people with disabilities, and potential to cluster interventions. A baseline survey (including a hygiene KAP) will then be conducted in selected households to determine detailed needs and solutions.
By the end of the second month, WASH infrastructure work will commence in ITS and host community households, according to SPHERE standards, including (i) installation of shared family latrines in ITSs, designated for males and females (ii) distribution of durable household ceramic water filters and (iii) cost effective rehabilitation of WASH facilities for targeted households living in substandard host community accommodation.
Activities will be implemented to ensure sustainable operation and maintenance of WASH infrastructure and to achieve improvements in hygiene behaviors, including: (i) establishment of gender balanced WASH committees (ii) provision of latrines cleaning kits (iii) hygiene awareness sessions.
Complementary hygiene behavior change activities will employ the “Hygiene promotion in ITSs Manual”, developed by INTERSOS and endorsed by UNICEF, with content adjusted based on specific gaps identified in the baseline survey. Hygiene awareness sessions will be accompanied by distribution of hygiene and dignity kits to participants. A WASH endline survey and Post Distribution Monitoring (PDM) exercise will be completed during the last month of the project.

ACTED will provide tailored WASH facilities for 501 households to address the specific needs of women, men, girls and boys living with disabilities as well as older people. Close involvement of the target community will ensure ownership and sustainability of the intervention. ACTED will provide 66 incentive-based volunteers (IBVs) with income-generating opportunities as they will be responsible to construct 501 private WASH facilities under the supervision of ACTED’s engineer staff. Support and training for the IBVs throughout the project will ensure that all WASH installations meet humanitarian inclusion standards for older people and people with disabilities as well as SPHERE and UNHCR standards. Community mobilization activities will raise awareness among the target community for the usage of the facilities and promote safe hygiene practices. Through this intervention, ACTED has proposed a project design that will simultaneously address the urgent WASH needs of vulnerable populations, while concurrently empowering members of the community to become technically knowledgeable in WASH infrastructure, thereby becoming role models for hygiene best practices within their communities.Agency for Technical Cooperation and DevelopmentAgency for Technical Cooperation and DevelopmentJordan Humanitarian FundHanalia FerhanCountry Director(+962) 798 754 731hanalia.ferhan@acted.orgCamille CheminDeputy to the Programmes Direction – Grants Management (HQ)(+33) 1 42 65 33 33camille.chemin@acted.orgSarah HallerProject Development Manager(+962) 790862765sarah.haller@acted.orgFlora SoussiSenior Finance Manager+962 79 199 5123 flora.soussi@acted.orgAline MilevCountry Director(+962) 798 754 731aline.milev@acted.orgAidana ChoyubekovaCountry Finance Manager(+962) 791 995 123aidana.choyubekova@acted.orgZarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Water Sanitation Hygiene150855.28175849.06326704.34Jordan Humanitarian FundAgency for Technical Cooperation and Development239999.76Jordan Humanitarian FundAgency for Technical Cooperation and Development59999.94Jordan Humanitarian FundAgency for Technical Cooperation and Development26704.64Jordan Humanitarian FundAgency for Technical Cooperation and Development0.01Agency for Technical Cooperation and DevelopmentUnited Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs0.00Agency for Technical Cooperation and DevelopmentUnited Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA2/BN/INGO/14826United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsProvision of Winterization Assistance for At Risk Vulnerable Families in JordanICMC proposes a 4-month winterization cash assistance intervention to support families in Northern Jordan who are most in need of basic needs assistance and have specific protection risks and vulnerabilities, including disability. The project will build on ICMC’s extensive experience in delivering winterization support and utilizing cash-based modalities to alleviate time-sensitive needs. Winterization cash assistance will be provided to both refugee and Jordanian host community families living in Irbid, Mafraq, Zarqa, Jerash, Ajloun, Balqa, and Madaba governorates, ensuring outreach in remote, rural areas and wide geographic coverage through the project. The project has been designed in compliance with the Winterization Task Force standards for 2019-2020 and closely coordinated with other actors in the task force to achieve extensive reach of beneficiaries and their non-duplication. The project is also aligned with the existing national and regional strategies, including the Regional Refugee Resilience Plan (3RP) and the Jordan Response Plan (JRP) whereby winterization support is prioritized by the social protection sector. In addition to the 500 families that ICMC has already identified through its existing BPRM-funded winterization program, ICMC will outreach an additional 450 families in need as well as refer to its existing database to re-assess families for potential winterization assistance. Families living in urban and rural areas with high levels of vulnerability will be referred to ICMC by community based organizations and assisted through the project. ICMC will coordinate closely with UNHCR to obtain lists of potential Syrian refugee beneficiaries as well as the Ministry of Social Development for lists of Jordanian families in need. ICMC’s commitment to assisting the most vulnerable, at-risk families will be reflected in the project through utilizing its comprehensive vulnerability assessment tool, which has been designed after UNHCR’s Vulnerability Assessment Framework (VAF). The assessment includes the short set of Washington Group questions to ensure people with disabilities are identified. ICMC’s assessment tool will ensure highly vulnerable families with protection needs due to their specific profiles are prioritized including women and older individuals (age 60+) at risk, people with disabilities, children at risk, and single parents/caregivers. Examples of risks faced by these specific groups may include but are not limited to being a survivor of GBV, high levels of household debt, threat of eviction, living in sub-standard conditions, individuals that have serious medical conditions or chronic illnesses, and individuals who are risk of further protection issues. Provision of winterization assistance will follow the Task Force’s standard assistance packages based on family size. The selected 375 families will benefit from unconditional cash assistance, ensuring dignity and choice as they determine what items are most essential for their families to cope with the winter season. Cash will be distributed through a contracted money lender (Alawneh) in branches that are both accessible and centrally located to the project’s beneficiaries. ICMC is currently in the process of transitioning to the Common Cash Facility (CCF) for all its cash distributions. If the process is completed by the start of the proposed project, the CCF will be used for distribution of winter cash assistance this year. Through this project, ICMC aims to complement existing efforts to meet the basic needs of the most vulnerable families, recognizing that a high need remains for targeted, winterization support this year, particularly in the Northern governorates which are most impacted by the winter season. The impact of the project will be assessed using the Task Force’s common post distribution monitoring form and contribute to the collective results documented by the basic needs working group.

This project is part of WRG's community based family strengthening program. The following proposal draws from lessons learned during our last three winterization projects in 2016/2017 (supported by OCHA), 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 (supported by OCHA).
WRG will assist 712 cases with a one-time cash transfer to cover their winterization needs. The average family size expected in this project is 5 people, totaling 3,560 beneficiaries (30% Jordanians, 70% Syrians outside of camps). Beneficiary names will be received from UNHCR, the Ministry of Social Development (MOSD) and our more than twenty local partners.
On the winterization task force meeting at the beginning of December 2019 it was reported, that 6,000 Syrian cases have not been yet covered. We will work with partners from the Amman, Zarqa, Mafraq, and Irbid Governorates to identify eligible beneficiaries from among those 6000 families that fit the beneficiary criteria in this call (women and elderly people at risk / people with disabilities / single parent or caregiver / children at risk). The verification on eligibility will be done via RAIS. If unexpectedly no VAF score is available, WRG will conduct its own vulnerability assessment (shortened VAF assessment). This grass-roots approach also helps identifying those who have no VAF scores and those whose situation has dramatically changed for worse since the last VAF assessment. If most of the cases from our partners are already covered and/or not eligible, we will request cases meeting the beneficiary criteria mentioned above from UNHCR.
Jordanian beneficiary names will be provided by MOSD. The UNHCR co-chair of the winterization task force mentioned the quality of the data from MOSD to be sufficient by now to work with their lists and that one can use specific indicators to receive names that fit the target group. The main benefit of working with MOSD is that duplications can be avoided, as MOSD will ensure that each beneficiary only receives one winterization package. To support further work with MOSD data, we will add some questions to the PDM, in order to measure the vulnerability of the people referred by MOSD.
WRG will disburse the one-time winterization cash assistance via the Common Cash Facility (CCF) for Syrians and via wire transfer for Jordanians. The amounts provided are based on the Winterization Task Force standards. This task force decided on amounts that should cover winter-related expenses depending on the case size.
WRG will have a protection focus through all phases of the project cycle. The project itself is mitigating protection concerns, as we have observed from previous post-distribution monitoring (PDM) for winterization: Providing cash for basic needs reduces household tensions among at risk households and therefore helps prevent negative coping mechanisms. More than that, WRG will provide further protection trainings to our partners and PDM teams. The trainings will focus on how to conduct a good home visit and include important topics like psycho-social support, supportive communication, active listening, confidentiality, and referrals. A second day of training will cover more in-depth how to handle cases of domestic violence, child abuse, and how to develop a safety plan. These topics are relevant for those grass-root partners who are in close personal contact with beneficiaries. Some of those trained will be able to use the training to assist in the PDM visits.

The project will provide Winterization assistance under the basic needs sector to reduce the risk of PoC exposure to negative coping mechanisms, and targeting four areas with high concentration of Syrian refugees in Amman, Zarqa, Mafraq and Irbid in Jordan. This project will be under CARE Jordan’s Urban Refugee Program, and will provide a range of integrated services for Syrian refugees through existing community centers in the above-mentioned target areas responding to needs identified through CARE’s Case Management approach.
Case Management in the Urban Refugee Program targets vulnerable individuals and households in refugee and local communities. These populations have multiple, complex needs. Therefore, the standardized Case Management process is the backbone of CARE’s intervention, the pre-requisite for the provision of customized solutions, recognizing and analyzing the different needs of gender and age sub-groups, as well as those with specific vulnerabilities such as persons with disabilities or households headed by women. It is also the hallmark of a coordinated and efficient humanitarian support system that takes into account various service providers, their expertise, capabilities and service portfolio.
Through the case management process, the most vulnerable refugees and Jordanians are provided with one-off unconditional Winterization cash assistance in order for them to meet the most urgent needs, and live a dignified and healthy life in the harsh winter season. Winterization cash assistance has been found in both CARE and inter agency review to offer beneficiaries dignity and efficiency as they determine their own household priorities.

According to UNHCR Operations Portal (5 November 2019), there are 654,266 registered Syrian refugees in Jordan. 531,232 Syrian refugees are living out of camps and concentrated in urban and rural areas in the northern governorates of Jordan. Refugees undergo difficult living conditions where most of them are living below the poverty line and they live in the most disadvantaged areas in Jordan. The crisis has overstrained the country’s infrastructure and strained social services such as healthcare and education. Refugees are struggling to access health services that are not permitted for free as before and they cannot afford for treatment and medication. The humanitarian conditions of Syrian refugees are worsening and protection concerns are existing. The conflict is impacting severely on women and girls in Jordan, increasing GBV risks and exposure for refugee and host communities, with increased demands on services. Sexual and Gender-¬¬based violence (SGBV) among Syrian refugees is manifested in many forms including rape, domestic violence, early and forced marriages, sexual exploitation, and abuse. The project will target 70% Syrian Refugees and 30% Jordanians and host community as per the Ministry of Planning and Cooperation requirements for Syria Crisis Response. IRJ will conduct a baseline assessment in Irbid to identify the beneficiaries with gender-based needs analysis and age markers. A participatory approach will be considered to ensure the participation of the beneficiaries in all project stages. IR Jordan will coordinate with local CBOs, and community leaders to identify the needs, and will consult with sector cluster and the target groups in the project preparation stage and we will update and verify the intervention (if needed) based on the basic needs cluster priorities. The beneficiaries selection process will be based on the vulnerability criteria including women household, widows with children, elderly persons, persons with disability, family income, family size, gender, household disability, number of elderly/sick/children in each household, orphan families, and health vulnerability in addition to RAIS and VAF Scoring. According to the Jordanian Response Plan for Syria Crisis (JRP 2019), data analysis across all vulnerability indicators highlights Mafraq, Amman, and Irbid, as the governorates most in need. The overall goal of the project is to work towards mitigating against the risks of the freezing winter significantly impacting the vulnerable Syrian refugees and the Jordanian host communities and thus, IRJ will distribute unconditional cash to families living in Irbid to provide a source of heat through distributing heaters, gas cylinders, gas re-fill vouchers, and blankets, for the families who live in uninsulated accommodation. Children will be the main focus of the project since the distribution of winterization items will reduce the potential risks of cold-related diseases that would severely affect Syrian refugees especially children. IRJ will ensure that community leaders, women and youth will be involved in program implementation and their ideas and feedback will be incorporated. This approach will develop a sense of ownership of the project by the target communities to ensure its success and sustainability. Similarly, the project will strengthen community needs and increase access to resources and reduce the burden over the community.

Low temperatures, rainfall, flooding, and snow threaten vulnerable populations who live in sub-standard shelters and are unable to make seasonal repairs and renovations to address damp and moldy walls, broken windows and doors, and large spaces that do not easily heat. While cash assistance is provided by UNHCR and other humanitarian actors in Jordan, a gap exists in interventions that invest in housing infrastructure and support increased security of tenure among vulnerable Syrian refugees and Jordanians. In response, this project aims to ensure improved living conditions, protection, and dignity for vulnerable refugee and Jordanian women, girls, boys, and men (WGBM) through seasonal shelter rehabilitation for those living in sub-standard shelters.
Upon conducting household assessments, IOCC has identified the need for home repairs and renovations to address urgent, seasonal needs among vulnerable households, particularly among households that include persons with disabilities (PWDs) and elderly at risk who have specific vulnerabilities that must be considered. The inability of these populations to secure shelter that meets their specific needs can have compounding negative impacts.
Building on assessment visits, IOCC will deploy outreach volunteers and Site Engineers to targeted areas of Amman, Irbid, and Mafraq to validate household vulnerability and conduct a technical assessment of potential beneficiaries’ shelters. IOCC will select 200 households (60 in Mafraq, 60 in Irbid, and 80 in Amman) for shelter rehabilitation through this project. Additionally, through a public tender process, IOCC will select contractors to conduct rehabilitation work.
IOCC Site Engineers will prepare bills of quantities (BoQs) and rehabilitation plans for each household. Additionally, IOCC will sign an agreement with each landlord and beneficiary that outlines responsibilities during and after the project. In this agreement, IOCC will ensure security of tenure and also negotiate rent reduction, depending on the level of investment in the shelter. Seasonal shelter upgrades will fall into four categories:
- Level 1 – 0 JOD to 499 JOD – security of tenure for one year and no increase in rent
- Level 2 – 500 JOD to 899 JOD – security of tenure for one year and rent reduction (at least 10%)
- Level 3 – investments between 900 JOD and 1,199 JOD – security of tenure for 1 to 1.5 years and rent reduction (at least 20%)
- Level 4 – 1,200 JOD to 2,000 JOD – security of tenure for 1 to 1.5 years and rent reduction (at least 30%).
In addition to consulting the Shelter Working Group’s Technical Guidelines: Upgrading of Sub-standard Shelters, IOCC conducted a market analysis of prices for commonly needed items in rehabilitation to ensure the budget is appropriate.
Rehabilitation of shelters will focus first on seasonal needs, such as addressing thermal enhancements, including repair and insulation work that addresses issues of dampness and cold flood mitigation measures and reducing energy demand through efficiency measures. Additional work will be conducted on a case-by-case basis with a focus on safety and health concerns, as well as improved access in shelters for PWDs and elderly at risk.
Throughout the rehabilitation process, IOCC will conduct monitoring, particularly of contractors – technically via Site Engineers, with beneficiaries and landlords via the IOCC Field Coordinator and MEAL Officer, and financially (including on-site) via the Finance Assistant. Site Engineers and the Field Coordinator will provide the final approval of rehabilitation work.
Toward the end of the project, the MEAL Officer will conduct surveys and focus group discussions (FGDs) to gather information on the impact of activities. Additional follow-up will be conducted to ensure longer-term impacts of assistance and that no issues arise due to the project.International Orthodox Christian CharitiesInternational Orthodox Christian CharitiesJordan Humanitarian FundLoren HyattCountry Representative+962790220592lhyatt@iocc.orgShereen Al HaddadFinance Coordinator+962795696718salhaddad@iocc.orgAl Mafraq31.19290323 35.69146862Amman31.91905968 35.92902353Irbid32.55798676 35.84675724Emergency Shelter and NFI313000.00313000.00Jordan Humanitarian FundInternational Orthodox Christian Charities250400.00Jordan Humanitarian FundInternational Orthodox Christian Charities62600.00Jordan Humanitarian FundInternational Orthodox Christian CharitiesJordan BI 2019XM-OCHA-CBPF-JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA2/Sh./INGO/14856United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsWarm for Winter 3: Improved Shelter Conditions and Energy EfficiencyThrough this project, Caritas Switzerland (CACH) and Caritas Jordan (CAJO) will extend their established shelter assistance to additional 235 households (HH) in Eastern Amman, Irbid, Mafraq and Zarqa. It builds on among others, two JHF-funded interventions in shelter winterization (JOR-18/DDA-3560/SA2/Sh./INGO/10660 and JOR-19/DDA-3560/SA1/Sh./INGO/12742). The accrued experience as well as an own contribution by CACH will translate into a more focused and cost-efficient approach, which targets a caseload that is 30% higher compared to the previous intervention.
As in the past, timely approval of the competent national authorities is anticipated that allows for a speedy response in line with the priorities specified by the sector. The project will improve winter-resilient standards by providing repair and insulation work against dampness, mold, flooding, draught/cold and will thereby advance dignified living conditions for particular at-risk groups through the application of easy to implement and cost-effective energy efficiency measures. The project will upgrade sub-standard shelters, which will also prepare the beneficiaries for the coming winter season 2020/2021.
The 235 HH (70% Syrian and 30% Jordanian) will be selected from the CAJO database and through referrals that are both crosschecked with RAIS. HH benefitting from the assistance will be selected on the basis of the following criteria: 1) living in sub-standard shelters (shelter type score 3), 2) living in poverty (predicted welfare score 3-4), 3) specific protection risks related to gender, age, disability or extreme economic vulnerability. Caritas has established centres with previous experience in shelter maintenance and protection (namely, referrals and case management) in each area. The caseload is distributed across these centres to continue needs-based and timely implementation.
The selection of HH starts by analysing data captured during assessments that comply with the vulnerability assessment framework (VAF). Referrals from the Working Groups or the Ministry of Social Development can be included if they fit the proposed action’s criteria. A gender-balanced team of 1 caseworker and 1 field monitor per centre/governorate will conduct home visits to confirm eligibility and shelter upgrade needs. Technical staff confirm the selection and the works to be carried out.
Once the beneficiaries are identified, caseworkers and legal advisor will hold awareness raising sessions on rights and obligations as tenants, the services beneficiaries can expect to receive, Caritas’ and contracted parties’ appropriate conduct, and feedback mechanisms.
Caritas will conduct one bidding processes per governorate to identify one suitable contractor per governorate. Contractors will be invited to submit offers based on tender documents and generic bills of quantities (BoQ) and will be selected based on a minimum of 3 offers. For each shelter, technical staff agrees in writing with tenants, owners and contractors on the prospective works. A legal advisor will support negotiations with property owners to secure tenure for all shelters for at least 1 year and reducing the monthly rent by 10% in line with the shelter sector guidelines, if applicable. During and after the upgrades, caseworkers and monitors will conduct spot checks and avail themselves for questions, complaints and other feedback. Technical staff will conduct technical acceptance checks in the presence of all stakeholders, following to which invoices can be submitted by the contractor. Lastly, a survey to understand satisfaction rates, protection concerns, and unintended negative effects will be conducted, disaggregated by age, gender and diversity factors (nationality, disability, gender of head of household).
Identified HH with additional specific needs that fall outside the scope of the proposed action will benefit from internal and external referrals to appropriate services.Caritas SwitzerlandCaritas SwitzerlandCaritas JordanJordan Humanitarian FundTheresa StienenProgramme Manager Jordan+962 79 634 2661 tstienen@caritas.chPirmin PfulgFinance Officer+41 41 419 22 97ppfulg@caritas.ch David Fischer Finance Officer +41 41 419 23 53dfischer@caritas.chLukas VoborskyRegional Director +962 7 7735 9325lvoborsky@caritas.chMarmar AlshamiProgramme Coordinator Jordan+962 796 488257malshami@caritas.chAl Mafraq31.19290323 35.69146862Amman31.91905968 35.92902353Irbid32.55798676 35.84675724Zarqa32.07577806 36.08100277Emergency Shelter and NFI201437.27201437.27Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas Switzerland161149.82Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas Switzerland40287.45Jordan Humanitarian FundCaritas SwitzerlandJordan BI 2019
