Yemen

Yemen enters 2026 facing a worsening humanitarian crisis driven by conflict, economic collapse, displacement, climate shocks and shrinking humanitarian funding. Millions continue to struggle to access food, health care, clean water and other essential services, with vulnerable groups disproportionately affected. Disease outbreaks, severe malnutrition and deteriorating maternal and child health indicators continue to place immense pressure on an already fragile health system.

In 2026, the response targets the most vulnerable populations with life-saving primary health care, reproductive health services, mental health and psychosocial support, vaccination, outbreak surveillance and treatment of communicable diseases. Mobile medical teams, community outreach and support to health facilities will help reach hard-to-access and underserved areas, while efforts to strengthen surveillance, emergency preparedness and local capacity remain central to sustaining essential health services amid continued operational challenges.
