Yemen remains one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises. After nearly a decade of conflict, two-thirds of the population need emergency assistance, and five million need treatment for acute malnutrition.

Relief Efforts in Yemen

CARE has been continuously active in Yemen since 1992, addressing poverty and promoting social justice through emergency relief efforts and sustainable development projects.

CARE delivers emergency response and recovery assistance directly and in partnership with local and international organizations.

A collapsing economy and non-existent public services mean that millions are struggling to get enough food, water, education, and healthcare. Our programs start at the community level where we respond to emergencies, strengthen resilience, and give voice to the most at-risk groups, especially women and girls. In addition to our emergency responses, CARE ensures that early recovery, building capacity, and long-term development are integral parts of our programs.
