Carried out more than one year into the COVID-19 pandemic in Jordan, the UNHCR-WFP joint mobile Essential Needs Assessment (mENA) for non-Syrian refugee population in Jordan fills a vital information gap for this population group, providing essential and timely multi-sectorial vulnerability data including on food security, negative coping strategies, monetary poverty, livelihoods, shelter and safety. The assessment is a key milestone in UNHCR and WFP’s efforts to develop a joint approach for the targeting of vulnerable non-Syrians for basic needs and food assistance.
