Conclusion

More initiatives to provide equity to the most vulnerable youths especially those with disabilities.

More care providers, and funding needed for hospitals and clinics especially in refugee camps.

More funding, teachers, and books needed to educate children especially refugees.

Funding and new policies are needed for better education, health, and equality.

Jordan's GDP has fallen over the past ten years and is only 26% of the worlds average.

Therefore Jordan's ability to care for all its people is compromised.

The costs have risen but funding/money has fallen.

Jordan has accepted many refugees over the last decade.

Suggested Resolutions

2. Providing well-funded medical assistance and care to the most vulnerable people.

3. Care towards the needs of vulnerable young people especially adolescents with disabilities by providing better services, programmes, and policies.

1. Giving access to education for refugee children (by building schools, classrooms, training teachers, providing uniforms, books, and meals).

Jordan's Current Position

Equality Initiative: addressing inequality towards adolescents with disabilities especially concerning health and hunger.

Medical Initiative: Employing refugee medics during Cocid-19.

Educational Initiative: TIGER project empowers girls in Za'atari camp through academic support and activities that build confidence and skills.

70,000 vulnerable families received Covid-19 cash assistance in 2021.

About 46% of refugees in Jordan will need assistance during the winter.

United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to distribute USD 35M to 100,000 most vulnerable refugee families in Jordan (2021)

Education Stats for Syrian Refugees: 500,000 not enrolled in formal education: 22,000 children enrolled in Za'atari camp (72%)

Since 2019, Jordan established a vulnerability assessment framework that helps the most vulnerable groups and therefore is more equitable.

In 2016, The Jordan Compact was an agreement between Jordan and the International Community to deal with the Syrian refugee crisis.

In 2017, Jordan committed to the Agenda 2030.

"The Comprehensive National Plan for Human Rights outlines the objectives for 2016-2025."

Background Information

Between 2010 and 2020, the GDP fell from USD 3637 to 3231.

The GDP (Gross Domestic Product) per capita in Jordan in 2020 was USD 3242. This is equivalent to 26% of the worlds average.

By 2020, not even 50% was funded and funding actually dropped from 2013. Therefore the gap increased.

Between 2012 and 2020, funding needs grew from 250M to 1.5B.

130,570 Syrian Refugees live in camps.

Syrian Refugee Stats (October 2021): 672,023 total Syrian Refugees. 50% are ages 18-59, 45% are ages 0-17. 130,570 Syrian Refugees live in camps.

An example is the Government of Canada has contributed $50m towards Zero Hunger, Education, Gender Equality, etc.

The UN has been instrumental in linking international partners and investments with Jordan

The SDGs will help Jordan achieve three interrelated priorities: strengthening institutions, empowering people, and enhancing opportunities.

The SDGs that the UN is working on in Jordan include: No Poverty (SDG 1), Good Health and Well-Being (SDG 3), Quality Education (SDG 4), and Reduced Inequalities (SDG 10).

This partnership commits to a more sustainable approach to development, prosperity, peace, and security, 2018-2022.

In Jordan, there are therefore many vulnerable people and those at risk of "being left behind."

The needs of Syrian refugees has caused great pressure on Jordan's infrastructure and resources.

Jordan is a lower-income country that had welcomed waves of refugees from neighboring countries, such as Syria.

Jordan joined the United Nations on December 14,1995.
