IRC

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) has been actively working in Yemen since the onset of the humanitarian crisis in 2015, focusing on providing critical assistance to those affected by the ongoing conflict and addressing both immediate needs and long-term recovery. Key areas of focus include emergency relief, where the IRC delivers life-saving support such as food assistance, cash transfers, and shelter for displaced populations and vulnerable communities. The organization also provides essential health services, including access to primary and reproductive health care, mental health support, and treatment for malnutrition, particularly among children and pregnant women. Additionally, the IRC works to ensure access to clean water and sanitation facilities, implementing programs to improve hygiene practices and reduce the risk of waterborne diseases. Education is another priority, as the IRC supports educational opportunities for children affected by the conflict by offering assistance to schools and providing learning materials to enhance access to quality education. Furthermore, the organization focuses on protecting vulnerable individuals, including women and children, from violence and exploitation, offering counseling and support services for survivors. Through its comprehensive approach, the IRC aims to alleviate suffering and promote resilience in Yemen, collaborating with local partners and communities to address the urgent needs of those impacted by the crisis and contribute to long-term recovery efforts.
