Abstract

The war in Syria has caused a major humanitarian crisis, causing millions of civilians to flee to various countries, especially in the Middle East. This condition demands a fast, equitable, and effective distribution of humanitarian aid. In the distribution process, the protection of human rights (HAM) is crucial so that all refugees gain access to aid fairly and without discrimination. This study aims to analyze the implementation of human rights protection in the distribution of humanitarian aid for Syrian refugees and identify the challenges faced. The method used is a normative and empirical legal approach with a case study in Jordan, a country with many Syrian refugees, and a strategic point for the distribution of international aid. Data were obtained from an analysis of global and national refugee law and the results of interviews and observations in the field. The findings show that although there are international legal instruments such as the 1949 Geneva Convention, Additional Protocols, and the UN Charter, their implementation in the field is still weak. Discrimination in access to aid, lack of transparency, and exploitation of vulnerable groups such as women and children were found. In addition, dependence on international organizations and weak coordination between humanitarian actors hamper distribution effectiveness. Strengthening monitoring mechanisms, increased coordination, and human rights-based policies are needed to make aid distribution more inclusive and equitable.
