The report examines the evolution of the Syrian refugees' legal status and living conditions in Jordan since their arrival in 2011/2011, considering the political and socioeconomic issues their integration poses for Jordan and for the Syrians as individuals and as a collective. The first section analyze the legal framework that has governed the modalities of integration of refugees (Syrians and non-Syrians) in Jordan in terms of opportunities and limitations this has imposed in terms of economic and social integration. The second section examines how vulnerability, in its various manifestations, has evolved since the beginning of humanitarian/ socioeconomic intervention on behalf of the Syrian refugees and their host communities in 2012. In doing so, it confronts related statistical data provided by the institutional actors according to standard indicators of vulnerability (poverty, coping strategies, access to public services, etc.) with the subjective "voices" of the assisted populations. The third section deals with the assistance policies engaged by Jordan and its international partners since the advent of the Jordan Compact in February 2016. Here we will highlight the challenge posed by the implementation of the “nexus”, namely the transit of humanitarian assistance programmes to a developmental assistance approach centered on employment within the context of the development policies launched by Jordan since the early 2000s. The fourth section puts forward recommendations aimed to thematically and operationally reposition the interventions of the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) in order to improve livelihoods and, beyond, Jordan’s stability.
