Integrated NCD-humanitarian response – Jordan

Objectives

WDF19-1732 aims to implement an integrated NCD-humanitarian national response strategy with focus on prevention and access to care for both refugee populations and Jordanians. The goal is to reduce the burden of NCDs, especially diabetes and high blood pressure, among refugees and other vulnerable groups in Jordan.

Approach

The project will support activities within three main areas anchored in national health system planning and humanitarian response actions concerning health.

Expected results

- 190 primary care centres strengthened
- 600 MoH staff of different categories trained
- 150,000 patients (incl. 50,000 refugees) provided improved care
- 40,000 people at risk of NCDs reached through awareness activities
