Livelihoods festival promotes ties between Syrian refugees and Jordanian host communities

The ILO, through its "Enhancing job opportunities and livelihoods in host communities” project, supported a two-day festival in the Northern city of Ramtha in Jordan, designed to promote home-based businesses for both Syrian and Jordanian families. It is one of a series of similar events being supported by the ILO, as part of the UN agency’s wider efforts to enhance employment opportunities and livelihoods in communities straining to cope with the influx of large numbers of refugees in the region.
