Ongoing violence and insecurity have pushed millions of Yemeni people into a devastating humanitarian crisis. Even before the current conflict, families were facing severe hardship in Yemen, the poorest country in the Arab world.
In addition to conflict, the high rates of hunger in Yemen are driven by lack of clean water, diverse and healthy food, and income as well as disease outbreaks and recurring natural disasters.
Support for mothers, caretakers, and young children is at the heart of Action Against Hunger’s work in Yemen. Our teams save lives by preventing and treating malnutrition, improving access to water, sanitation, and hygiene, and providing mental health services.
