The Issue

The Challenge We Face

Behind the statistics of Yemen’s humanitarian crisis are real people—families torn apart, children traumatized by violence, women facing unimaginable hardships.

The conflict has not only destroyed infrastructure but has shattered the social fabric that once held communities together. Millions of Yemenis face severe protection risks daily. The ongoing conflict has resulted in civilian casualties, forced displacement, family separation, and widespread psychosocial trauma.

Women and girls face heightened risks of gender-based violence, early marriage, and exploitation. Vulnerable groups including internally displaced persons, returnees, marginalized communities, persons with disabilities, and elderly individuals face compounded protection challenges.

Many lack civil documentation, limiting their access to basic services and humanitarian assistance.
