P R I N C I PA L ACT I V I T I E S
In Yemen, some 1.25 million civil servants have not been receiving their salaries regularly since 2015. As a result, they have had to look elsewhere to find livelihoods opportunities to feed themselves and their families. This has had a devasting effect resulting in a lack of doctors, nurses, healthcare and sanitation workers, especially in rural areas.
