Summary

In April 22,the UNFPA Jordan country program in coordination with Plan International and the Institute for Family Health (IFH) Noor Al Hussein Foundation commissioned a rapid assessment of the COVID-19 situation in Jordan. The overall purpose of this rapid assessment is to measure the impact of COVID-19 on gender-based violence and sexual and reproductive health and rights among adolescent girls (defined as girls ages (1-17) and young women aged (18-24) in Jordan,including persons with disabilities (PwD).
These findings from this study are derived from a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods with about 4 respondents including:
1. 36 remote and telephone surveys targeting adolescent and adult men and women in Irbid,Karak,Amman governorates and Azraq and Za’atari refugee camps;
2. 28 key informant interviews (KII) with GBV and SRH service providers,youth educators,and members of the government; and
3. Two focus group discussions (FGD) with women and girls from the refugee and Jordanian population;
A review of literature on the gendered dimensions of infectious disease outbreaks,with a particular focus on the impacts of pandemics on gender-based violence and sexual and reproductive health,was conducted to inform the analysis and contextualize the findings of this assessment.
