Over the past decades, the negative impact of the climate crisis has become increasingly evident in Yemen. Challenges such as increasing water scarcity, desertification, drought, erratic rainfall, damage to biodiversity and flooding also impact the livelihoods of Yemenis negatively impacting communal, household and individual level resilience. Against this backdrop, this project seeks to contribute to improved programming on food security in Yemen by providing evidence from climate-smart agricultural initiatives in the country that are promising, and conservation approaches that present opportunities for livelihoods opportunities for Yemenis; and by engaging relevant actors in an exchange on these findings. The project is implemented on behalf of Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH Yemen with funding from the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
