The State of Aid and Development in Yemen
By Montgomery Group
Whilst it is understandable that Ukraine is still in the media spotlight, some of the other conflicts are not getting the recognition they deserve. This webinar co-hosted with Amani Institute on 25th of August at 2PM (BST) / 4PM (AST) / 9AM (EST), is designed to shine a light on what is happening on the ground in Yemen. The UN estimated that 24.1 million people in 2021 were "at risk" of hunger and disease, and roughly 14 million were in acute need of assistance. With the situation escalating from the previous measurements, this session will dissect the challenges aid organisations are facing on the ground, what is working and not working in the way we approach aid and development in the country and more importantly what can be done to address the needs of the local population.
Speakers Include:
- Jared Rowell, Yemen Country Director, International Rescue Committee
- Maya Ameratunga, Yemen Representative, UNHCR
- Erin Hutchinson, Yemen Country Director, Norwegian Refugee Council
- Scott Paul, Senior Manager, Humanitarian Policy, Oxfam America
- Maylis Bezuidenhoudt, Global Communications Manager, Amani Institute
