Despite the enormous operational, access and security challenges, the DEC's member charities have succeeded in reaching more than 1.3 million women, men, girls and boys across seven governorates between December 2016 and the end of June 2017. While this is significant and commendable, it remains overshadowed by the increasing scale of the humanitarian need in Yemen.

This appeal is now closed but our Coronavirus Appeal is currently active. Donations will help people in the world's most vulnerable places, including Yemen, protect themselves from the deadly new threat of the virus.
