Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On March 1, 2017 the Government of China granted the World Health Organization (WHO) USD$75,000 to provide assistance for health consequences of conflict-affected displaced Syrians and refugees. The aid was intended to respond to civil unrest in Syria and contributed to the 2017 Syria regional refugee and resilience plan (3RP) for Jordan (UN project code SRRP-17/MS/109729). 3RP requested USD$5.58bn for the implementation of its plan, but only USD$3.04bn was raised by member states in 2016. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) reported that China's contribution has been paid. This project is captured by UNOCHA flow #159611.
