- In September, nearly 229,000 refugees categorised as vulnerable in communities did not receive assistance due to a chronic funding shortage.
- WFP monitors and hotline staff reported increasing desperation among refugees in the communities, noting the withdrawal of children from school and child labour is becoming even more common.
- WFP signed an agreement with UNDP for the implementation of a joint employment project for vulnerable Jordanians affected by the economic and Syrian crises, which will provide opportunities for community-based emergency employment and income generation through the food-for-work modality. While promoting individual savings and engaging emerging entrepreneurs in economic ventures, the project will also promote social cohesion by encouraging members of the community to organize themselves into addressing host community basic needs through the improvement of social and economic infrastructure.
