UNICEF Response

Yemen remains one of the most difficult places in the world to be a child, endure a protracted conflict spanning over a decade. Thousands of children have been killed or maimed in a war not of their making, and the combined risks of conflict, disease, and malnutrition are a daily reality. Those who survive will carry the physical and emotional scars for years to come.

UNICEF works around the clock with humanitarian partners to provide lifesaving assistance to children and families—including health, nutrition, water and sanitation, education, and child protection services.
