UNICEF and the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) have signed a new £1.5 million agreement to support the continued delivery of lifesaving water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services for over 100,000 Syrian refugees living in Zaatari and Azraq camps.اضافة اعلان

UNICEF Representative in Jordan, Philippe Duamelle, stated:

“Thanks to this generous support from the UK government, we will be able to continue providing clean water and sanitation services to thousands of Syrian families. These services are essential to the health, well-being, and dignity of Syrian children and their families in the camps. We are grateful to the FCDO for our ongoing partnership in Jordan over the past years.”

Philip Hall, the British Ambassador to Jordan, added:

“People need water, and this partnership reflects the UK’s commitment to helping refugees in Jordan live dignified lives.”

The funding will ensure the continued operation and maintenance of centralized water and sanitation systems in both camps from July 2025 through March 2026.

This support comes at a critical time, as Jordan’s humanitarian response continues to face significant funding gaps despite the ongoing urgent needs.
