Given the multitude of humanitarian crises impacting communities throughout the Arab region, UNFPA is consistently working to deliver quality sexual and reproductive health services and gender-based violence programming to refugees, displaced people, and host communities in need.
In 2022, UNFPA conducted the sixth regional assessment of its humanitarian programmes spanning the Syria, Türkiye, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Yemen, and Sudan, in order to gauge the impact its programmes have had on the well-being of women, girls, boys, and men. The assessment revealed that people served, particularly women and girls, continue to rely on UNFPA-supported facilities to access much-needed, high quality services that are delivered safely and confidentially. This fact summarises the methodology and key findings of the assessment, in addition to a series of recommendations that emerged from those findings.
