Jordan
Jordan hosts around 750,000 registered Syrian refugees, in addition to over 370,000 registered Palestinian refugees. They are living in a precarious situation, with no stable future prospects. In addition, children, who make up 40% of the total population, are threatened by early school dropout, child labour and early marriage. Tdh activities focus on helping the refugee population and the host communities through providing fair access to child protection services. We also work towards the implementation of restorative justice for children in conflict with the law and in contact with the justice system.
