Project for Syrian refugee women in Jordan

Supporting refugee women from Syria.

COUNTRY/PROBLEM

Jordan is a country in the Middle East. Since the beginning of the Syrian crisis in 2011, more than a million Syrians have fled to Jordan, of whom 662,000 are registered refugees. Jordan also faces complex developmental challenges that have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In recent years, political instability and the pandemic significantly increased the humanitarian needs of people of all nationalities residing in Jordan.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANISATION

Jordan Health Aid Society-international (JHASi) is a non-profit, non-governmental humanitarian organisation established in 2005 in Jordan. It was founded to ensure the resilience and development of vulnerable communities and groups by increasing access to healthcare. Its mission includes engaging in immediate response to humanitarian crises and implementing projects in the following sectors: health, shelter, food security, and WASH. JHASi’s long-term involvement in Jordan focuses also on supporting Syrian refugees, particularly women, in the SRHR sector.

PROJECT SUPPORTED BY KF

The project is intended to support Syrian refugee women living in Zaatari (the largest Syrian refugee camp) by organizing menstrual health and hygiene awareness workshops as well as distributing hygiene products. Thanks to the collaboration between KF and JHASi, 500 women have received kits containing (among other things) menstrual pads, soaps, and laundry detergents, and have improved their knowledge of menstrual health.

Social awareness programs

Our aid projects help us understand the problems the modern world is facing. Our documentaires and educational programs drive change across societies .

Documentaries

Our documentaries shine a light on community problems in different parts of the world, and present organisations and local unsung heros who benefit from our support. In Poland, the Domino Effect TV series is created in cooperation with TVN - the largest private television in Poland. Through this work, we are able to reach those who might have never heard about a specific issue or the way in which they can help. This partnership results in a number of long form documentaries, which have been recognised at international film festivals. As part of our partnership with the CNN Freedom Project, we also produce a series of documentaries for English speaking audience. The series explores the issues of modern slavery and human trafficking, and is regularly broadcast on CNN International.

Educational programs

Since the beginning of its existence, the Kulczyk Foundation has been working to shape the socio-emotional competences of children and adolescents. We prepare unique lesson plans adapted to various stages of education. These focus on explainining the complex world of universal values and emotions, encourage reflection and the ability to draw conclusions. Ultimately help to build knowledge about ourselves and the world, and to shape attitudes towards the reality that surrounds us. As part of this commitement, we also provide workshops, conferences for teachers and faculty staff. We believe that wise education, implemented in a spirit of freedom and empathy, is a basic component of sustainable development for every human being, as well as a chance for a good start in adult life. No matter where they are from.
