Health Sector Humanitarian Response Strategy 2014-2015  

The Health Sector Humanitarian Response Strategy was developed by a Health Sector Strategic Advisory group in early 2015. This document outlines the context of the humanitarian response in Jordan, particularly highlighting the Syrian refugee crisis and its implications on the national health system. As the crisis continues, there is a need to shift focus from short-term interventions to longer and more sustainable ones, expanding national capacity to respond to this, and future crises. The strategy provides an overview of the evolving humanitarian context as well as the new demands imposing on the health systems in Jordan and consequently on the Health Sector. The strategy outlines the goals, objectives, and strategic approaches to tackling the crisis sustainable in the future.
