Population in Camp |
As for September 2016, Zaatari camp currently hosts 79,074 registered Syrian refugees*
Given the modest camp infrastructure, severe winter weather can result in flooding, blocked roads, and shelter damage.
To mitigate the harmful impacts of severe weather, UNHCR and camp partners implement a multi-sector Winter Contingency Response Plan between November and February each year
In order to guide winterization assistance and services provided to camp residents, the plan includes an annual Winterization Rapid Assessment
Key objective of the 2016 assessment is to identify priority winter needs for families in the camp across multiple areas:
- Cash and non-food item (NFI) assistance distributions
- Food access and availability
- WASH access
- Shelter repair & maintenance needs
