The ministry's data shows that the volume of JRP's funding to end of last November hit $492.4 million, out of $2.28 billion of its total funding requirements.
Shortfall in financing JRP amounted to about $1.78 billion, or 78.4% by the end of November 2022, out of its annual budget allocated to support Syrian refugees in Jordan, the ministry's figures revealed.
Of the $492.4 million already secured, $289.4 million went to support refugees , while about $77.5 million was provided to host communities, according to the latest update
In addition, about $98.8 million was allocated to infrastructure and institutional capacity-building and the public Treasury received about $21.8 million, while about $4.7mln went to fund Covid-19 pandemic response.
In press remarks made earlier to 'Petra,' on Jordan's modernization paths, Minister of Planning and International Cooperation, Zina Touqan, said Jordan is 'constantly' calling on the international community to assume its responsibility and provide appropriate support and funding to refugees.
She added that the international community's failure to support refugees 'directly' affected the value of foreign aid provided to the Kingdom, due to consequences of the world's current political and economic crises.
The government, she noted, will continue its humanitarian role in providing the necessary services to Syrian refugees within the available capabilities, highlighting its commitment to its policy of hosting refugees until their voluntary return to their homeland.
