Background


The Syria Recovery Trust Fund (SRTF) was established in September 2013, pursuant to decisions at the 12 December 2012 Fourth Meeting of the Group of Friends of the Syrian People in Marrakech, for the financing of reconstruction activities to rebuild the country and alleviate the suffering of the Syrian people as a result of the on-going conflict.

The SRTF assists local populations with key public services by supporting Implementing Entities.

Projects and assistance depend on the needs identified and requests received from local individuals and groups and potential Implementing Entities.

Implementing Entities originate from local municipal and social service providers in the population.


The Ombudsperson of the SRTF works independently and operates as an intermediary to provide SRTF-financed project beneficiaries and citizens generally with a confidential avenue to address complaints and resolve issues.

The Ombudsperson reports to the Steering Board of the SRTF.

The types of complaints the Ombudsperson receives typically involve demands for certain goods and services.

Some complainants voice frustration with their social and economic conditions and demand assistance from SRTF; others comment on certain SRTF-financed operations.


The accessibility of the Hotline telephone number enables SRTF project beneficiaries and citizens to communicate with the Ombudsperson by email and/or text freely and openly.

They share their thoughts and frustrations and always receive a response, no matter the nature of their complaints. Only written complaints are accepted by the Ombudsperson.

  • Main Responsibilities of the Assistant


The Assistant will be responsible for collecting initial information about the complainant and his/her complaint and conveying his/her findings to the Ombudsperson.

To that end, the Assistant should be able to conduct effective interviews and write clear, concise summaries. The Assistant should seek guidance from the Ombudsperson on an "as needed" basis.

All correspondence handled by the Assistant, including the final response to the complainant, should be copied to both the DG and the Ombudsperson.
