Project objectives: 

The Yemen Joint Response (YJR) 2024-2026 has been developed in line with the priority locations, sectors, activities and approaches defined in the YJR Protracted Crisis Mechanism (PCM) guidelines, a collaborative effort with partner organizations. It was shaped by the discerned needs and gaps, ascertained through individual needs assessments, secondary data sources, and cluster consultations. This comprehensive three-year YJR initiative is primarily focused on the governorates of Sa’ada, Hajjah, Marib, Taiz, Lahj, Aden, and Al Dhale’e. These areas represent the highest concentration of individuals in need of humanitarian assistance, where the most severe needs and gaps persist. 
The response proposes an integrated Health, Food Security and Livelihood (FSL), Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Protection, Multi-Purpose Cash (MPC), and protection mainstreaming programme. 
The objective is to provide multifaceted, life-saving humanitarian support to those in need, prioritising the most vulnerable population. Simultaneously, it aims to facilitate early recovery and enhance the resilience of communities affected by the conflict in Yemen. It is essential that all activities are designed to ensure equitable access to assistance for women, girls, boys, men, and people with disabilities (PWD). 
These activities are built upon existing initiatives, allowing partners to fine-tune their programs based on lessons learned and align with the specific needs outlined in the assessments for each sector. The YJR has set a goal to extend its reach to a total of 412,684 individuals.
