UNICEF Response

Yemen is currently one of the worst countries for a child to live in as it is facing a protracted conflict which has been ongoing for more than 7 years. Thousands of children have been killed or maimed in a war not of their making and the combined risk of conflict, disease and malnutrition is a daily reality for these children. Those who survive will live with the scars of conflict.

UNICEF is working around the clock with humanitarian partners to continue providing lifesaving assistance to children and families, including health, nutrition, water and sanitation, education and child protection.
