This report is the ninth monitoring report conducted since March 2018 and the initial subsidy cuts by the GoJ and covers August and September 2019 (n=298).

From 9 April 2019 to 23 September 2019 the IRC has interviewed at total of 887 Syrian refugees (62.5% women) who have benefited from various IRC services in Amman, Mafraq, Ramtha and Irbid.
