Our intervention in Yemen

The deteriorating economic situation, currency depreciation, persistent fuel shortages, rising prices of imported foodstuffs, and the lack of stable incomes for many households combined to make basic needs unaffordable for much of the population. This increased the level of malnutrition in the country, especially among women and children. Out of a population of 33 million, 17 million people face food insecurity, 6.1 million are in an emergency situation, and 3.5 million people suffer from acute malnutrition.

In Yemen, Action Against Hunger worked to improve the health and nutritional status of vulnerable populations by strengthening access to, and quality of, primary health and nutrition services in health centres and through its mobile teams – including through the provision of medicines, medical equipment, and training.

Primary healthcare, and reproductive health and vaccination programmes were also provided, as well as the detection and treatment of moderate and severe acute malnutrition in children under five, and among pregnant and breastfeeding women.

Action Against Hunger also rehabilitated health infrastructure and medical waste management systems and supported the construction of community water sources to ensure access to clean water and sanitation in health centres and vulnerable communities. Support for infant and young childcare and feeding practices was also provided.

Through its Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) interventions, Action Against Hunger’s response aims to reduce the effects of exposure to violence, prevent maltreatment and abuse, improve caregivers’ ability to cope with psychological distress, and enhance individual well-being. Action Against Hunger offers sessions focusing on care practices for women, children and parents, as well as mental health support sessions promoting better management of emotions and stress by learning different techniques. Integral support is provided for the most complex cases, and community awareness-raising activities are carried out.

To improve access to drinking water, Action Against Hunger focuses on building solar-powered water supply systems in health facilities and communities.
