EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION AND METHODOLOGY
For over a decade, International Medical Corps (IMC) has been providing a broad range of humanitarian aid in response to the Syria crisis, including healthcare, nutrition, Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), Gender-Based Violence (GBV) prevention and response, and Child Protection (CP) services. To better understand critical service delivery gaps, gender-specific patterns, and the overall needs of the affected populations, IMC has launched a comprehensive Multi-Sectoral Needs Assessment (MSNA) in key areas of Jordan: Amman, Irbid, and Al-Karak. This assessment targets both vulnerable host communities and urban refugees and aims to inform future programming and service provision by aligning with the population's needs, thus enhancing their well-being and resilience.
The MSNA spans various sectors, including health, MHPSS, CP, GBV, livelihoods (market assessment), and climate change. Trust Consultancy and Development (TCD) has partnered with IMC to develop the methodology, tools, and data collection processes. TCD was responsible for adapting IMC's existing tools to the local context, developing new tools as needed, and overseeing data collection, analysis, and report preparation. The data collection employed a mixed-methods approach, incorporating an in-depth desk review, household surveys (HHS), Key Informant Interviews (KIIs), and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), conducted between. It was conducted from the 25th of June to the 11th of July. Consistent tools were used across all sectors and governorates to ensure comprehensive and reliable data.
