Health Sector Humanitarian Response Strategy: Jordan 2014-2015

In early 2014, a Health Sector Strategic Advisory Group (SAG) for the Humanitarian Response was formed to further support the work of the Health Sector Working Group in Jordan. One of the SAG’s main tasks was to develop the Health Sector Humanitarian Response Strategy, expanding upon the existing response strategy and objectives present in the 2014 Syria Regional Response Plan 6 (RRP6).

This second version was updated in early 2015 to incorporate the latest response strategy, as well as reflect significant changes made to the national health policy of provision of services to registered Syrian refugees. This document, which will be periodically updated, outlines the context of the humanitarian response in Jordan, particularly highlighting the Syrian refugee crisis and its implications on the national health system.
