UNFPA Response in Yemen Situation Report #2 – April-June 2023

Yemen remains one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises, with an estimated 21.6 million people in need of humanitarian assistance or protection in 2023. The humanitarian crisis, primarily driven by continued conflict and an economic collapse, has been exacerbated by critical funding gaps, global inflation, and access challenges.

In the first half of the year, UNFPA reached nearly a million individuals with life-saving reproductive health services, protection information and services, and emergency relief. This includes support to 88 health facilities, 29 safe spaces, eight shelters, and five specialized mental health centres.
