[LIVING CONDITIONS : ]

Accommodation will be in the LEARN guesthouses in Amman, which are spacious and comfortable. Living conditions in Amman are very good and staff have access to a wide range of restaurants, cafes and bars. Most of occidental products (food, clothing…) are easily accessible in Amman. The country also proposes several destinations for weekends.

At the time of writing, international staff working on the response have extremely limited access to the area of intervention and are working remotely. The Grants Specialist would not be required to travel to North East Syria unless the situation normalizes to pre-October 2019 levels. In general, security inside NES is volatile and justifies specific arrangements for accommodation and movements in the areas of intervention. Adherence to strict security procedures is necessary, while the security levels can vary according to the different geographical locations and the changes of context.
