Making a Difference: Delivering Services for Yemeni People During Conflict

In Yemen, the Human Capital gap is widening. In 2019, the number of Yemenis in acute need increased by 27% compared to the year before. About 19.7 million people are now estimated to desperately require access to healthcare but nearly half of the country’s health facilities are not functioning.
