Tazweed center is a chain of independently owned and operated hypermarkets operating in the Syrian refugee camps. Tazweed was founded in 2013, with the goal of allowing camp residents to shop for a large variety of goods, and bring a sense of normal life to Syrian refugees based in such camp. Tazweed operates approximately four stores in Zaatari refugee camp, Mafraq, Domiz refugee camp, and Dohuk. ==Tazweed== Tazweed has established a number of giant supermarkets in a dusty tent city Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan built for refugees who have fled war-torn Syria. These shops are the first to spring up in the Za'atari desert refugee camp and have been welcomed by the United Nations World Food Programme as a way of distributing rations. These shops allowed camp residents to shop for a large variety of goods and bring a sense of normal life to some 100,000 Syrian refugees based there. With vouchers, refugees can choose from a diverse list of food that are not normally included in conventional food rations. A voucher has a value of JD18 (U.S.$ 25) per person per month and is complemented by a monthly ration of rice, lentils, bulgur wheat, date bars, sugar and salt. WFP gradually reduced the food commodities and increased the value of the voucher until the camp was assisted entirely through food vouchers at a value of JD24 (U.S.$ 34) per person per month. The shops opened in July 2012 with some 100 refugee families, the original camp was built in nine days. The camp now welcomes 2,000 new residents each day and is made up of 30,000 shelters and administration buildings. It costs about $500,000 a day to run, with half a million pieces of bread and 4.2 million litres of water distributed daily. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tazweed Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
