Walk the Talk Policy Paper

Over a decade has passed since Syrian refugees first fled to Jordan and other neighbouring countries to escape conflict. While Jordan has done much more than its neighbours to accommodate Syrian refugees, protracted displacement means that their needs remain acute. Refugees from countries other than Syria face even greater challenges and enjoy far fewer protections. 

We urge the international community to continue its strong support for Jordan’s refugee response and for all parties to work towards enabling refugees to access their durable solution of choice. Against the backdrop of an increasingly challenging environment for funding given recent geopolitical developments and macroeconomic trends, this includes strengthening coordination between humanitarian and development engagements to further improve the robustness and sustainability of international support to Jordan.
