Inter-Agency Emergency Standard Operating Procedures for Prevention of and Response to Gender-Based Violence and Child Protection in Jordan

The IASC standard operating procedures (SOPs) describe principles, procedures, roles, and responsibilities for providing GBV and child protection for everyone in Jordan who are affected by the Syrian crisis. The SOPs focus on the Syrian refugees but also include information for host populations. The document details minimum procedures for child protection and indicates which organisations or institutions are responsible for the actions in the four main response sectors of heath, psychological, law/justice, and security.
