Focus on our activities in Yemen

Our mission in Yemen has been open since 2007. 13 expatriates and 139 local employees are currently working on the mission. PUI is developing its integrated approach with interventions in the areas of Health, Nutrition, Food Security and WaSH. In addition, PUI works on the fight against malnutrition, support to primary and reproductive health services (supply of inputs and nutrition, medical equipment), maintenance and rehabilitation of health centers (including sanitary infrastructures), training of medical staff, etc. The mission ensures an extensive presence in both the North and South of the country, with four bases. We are supporting health facilities and Therapeutic Feeding Centers. The Yemeni complex context and the severe humanitarian crisis that results in huge needs of the population makes the Yemen Mission a particularly challenging and relevant one.
