INTERSOS is an international humanitarian organisation, which operates on the front line in contexts of war, violence, extreme poverty, natural or man-made disasters, protecting the most vulnerable people and providing medical care, basic necessities, and offering emergency shelter. In the Middle East, INTERSOS implements its humanitarian programmes in Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Syria and Yemen across Protection, Health, Education, WASH and Shelter Sectors. Yemen remains on of the world’s largest humanitarian crisis and aid operations. Over 9 years of war and armed conflict killed and injured tens of thousands of civilians, causing immense suffering for the Yemeni people. The economy and the currency continued to collapse as foreign reserves were depleted and the government was unable to subsidize food and other commodities for which Yemen is 90% import-reliant. As a result, millions more people cannot afford to meet their basic needs. A fuel crisis in the North, part of a dispute over the use of revenues, led to chronic fuel shortages and price hikes. Government capacity to regularly pay salaries and pensions to public employees has been hindered and public services have been degraded. Yemen is also vulnerable to natural hazards. Heavy rains and flooding regularly devastate communities, causing deaths and injuries, again destroying infrastructure and livelihoods, and increasing diseases spread and displacement. The impact of the drivers of the crisis is most visible in the growing risk of famine and acute severe malnutrition, disease outbreaks, conflict casualties, forced displacement (4 million IDPs) and reversal of past development gains. In addition, the conduct of the parties to the conflict has had a profound impact on the aid operation - particularly humanitarian access, aid delivery and independent data collection/assessments. INTERSOS works in Yemen since 2008, originally focusd on protection programming for Somali refugees. Gradually, INTERSOS evolved with a raising scope in terms of population target groups, geographical span and sectors. INTERSOS works today in Sana’a, Aden, Shabwa, Taiz, Ibb, Hajja, and Lahj; INTERSOS is implementing multi-sector and integrated programming, with its main sectors being Protection, integrated Health-Nutrition, Livelihoods, and WASH.
