More about the 2023 Annual Needs Assessment

The assessment highlights the general need to reduce aid dependency and intensify financial inclusion and income generation opportunities, as well as bolster social cohesion approaches between refugees and the host community, with resilience-based, cross-sectoral interventions.

Key findings from the 2023 assessment focus on insights across various thematic areas, particularly protection. This comprehensive assessment not only provides key insights but also serves as a critical roadmap for CARE Jordan’s future efforts in supporting and empowering communities.

Established in 1948 in the wake of the Palestinian crisis, CARE Jordan today leads a unified humanitarian and development response to sustainably support vulnerable Jordanian and refugee populations, expand effective partnerships, and enhance empowerment programming, especially for women and girls.
