scanned in different areas in Jordan, so as to evaluate the
effect of food security on their living conditions. The aim
was to link Food Security to other health issues, so as to

these vulnerable people. To achieve this goal, a survey was
conducted to measure food security status based on USDA

which the answers showed the level of their food security.

Jordan, the second objective was to examine differences in
food security based on refugees? demographical details such
