 A field coordinator in Syria is a very challenging position. Number one, I was responsible for managing all our staff's safety and well-being on the field and then in the offices as well. In addition to that, it meant coordinating all the field movements and making sure they have all what they need in terms of equipment cause to be safe while they are doing their job on the field. I think generally speaking, the situation has worsened. So there are many needs and not just a few main needs if I could say so. I mean the economy is worsening. Accordingly the infrastructure, provision of fuel, energy in general, food, the hospitals, medical services, everything has been deteriorating. So the needs are vast, immense. We are trying our best to deliver what we can. But unfortunately it's not enough. A particular thing is also the amount of destruction you see when you go from one place to another, one city to another or any road. It's unbelievable and definitely that means that lots of people have lost their homes, moved around, but then also many others are quite resilient and this is one of the things that impressed me about the Syrian population in general. The resilience with which they faced the problems and the very dire situation. One thing I've noticed is that that wasn't there maybe when I first arrived to Syria is the level of desperation that people have arrived to. So it's sad to see however many are still trying to maintain their life and still want to be part of this country and they don't want to leave. But unfortunately the desperation is growing and nobody is forcing a solution soon. Managing to survive is different from one area to another but people have come up with many different coping mechanisms. Of course the vast majority they live on assistance, which can sometimes be delivered on a regular basis and sometimes not. But they still manage to maintain let's say a minimum basic standard of living which is still better for many than leaving their country or leaving their homes despite the destruction they have witnessed. The Syrian Arab Red Crescent is our main partner in Syria and most of our activities are done jointly with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent. And I have to say we rely on them a lot to understand even better what's going on and improve our response. And in that frame I would like to remind everybody that we should all parties to a conflict should respect the role of the Syrian Arab Red Crescent and try as much as they can to protect the volunteers of the Syrian Arab Red Crescent in their humanitarian mission and facilitate their work for them.
