Resumen
Descripción
Yemen is facing the world’s largest food security crisis following two and a half years of airstrikes, armed clashes and attacks on civilian infrastructure, which have also enabled the spread of cholera at an unprecedented scale. Yemini people are increasingly exhausting their coping mechanisms and as a result the humanitarian crisis remains extremely widespread. The expansion of the conflict has also led to large-scale displacement compounded with existing high levels of vulnerability, including high rates of malnutrition.
The livelihoods of a significant segment of the population dependent on agriculture were disrupted and local food production was severely compromised. Combining emergency assistance with longer-term support is fundamental to restore vulnerable families’ livelihoods and prevent the deterioration of food security.
