What is happening?

The citizens of Yemen are currently facing the world's worst humantarian crisis as the result of the Yemen Civil War from 2015, which caused a siginificant decrease in the economy, a lack of basic resources such as food and water, and a majority of the country being homeless with no place to go. Not only this, but the healthcare system was left vulnerable by the violence of the Civil War, making Yemen one of the hardest hit countries for the COVID-19 pandemic.

21 Million Yemini citizen's are in need of help, along with 9.8 in need of urgent help, 14.8 in need of basic healthcare services, and 2.9 who are internally displaced. To put that into proportion, if Yemen was 100 people...


~ 80 would need humantarian aid
~ 67 would be food insecure
~ 66 would lack access to healthcare
~ 59 would lack access to clean water
~ 11 would be internally displaced
~ 30 would suffer from extreme hunger
~ 11 children and pregnant/lactating women would need treatment for acute malnutrition

But they're not 100 people..
