Restoring Dignity and Saving Lives through Integrated Cash and WASH Assistance for Vulnerable IDPs in Al Arah, Al Musaymir, and Tur Al Bahah Sub-districts of Lahj Governorate

About this project

ltpgtYears of prolonged conflict, economic collapse, displacement, and rising food and fuel prices have severely undermined the resilience of communities in Lahj Governorate, particularly in Al-Madharibah Wa Al-Aarah, Al-Musaymir, and Tur Al-Bahah districts. Joint assessments conducted by Yanabia Al-Khair Charity Foundation (YKF), in coordination with FSAC, WASH Cluster, and CMWG, confirm critical levels of food insecurity, limited access to safe water and sanitation, and heightened protection and public health risks. Internally displaced households—especially female-headed households, persons with disabilities, elderly-headed households, and families with malnourished children—are increasingly relying on negative coping strategies such as meal skipping, borrowing, child labor, asset depletion, and early marriage.ltbrgtIn response, the project delivers an integrated, life-saving intervention combining Unconditional Cash Transfers (UCT), Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA), and targeted WASH support, aligned with the YHF 2nd Standard Allocation 2025 Strategy, HRP Strategic Objective 1, and relevant cluster guidance. The primary target group is IDPs residing in selected IDP camps. A limited number of highly vulnerable host community households living near the camps will be included only under cash assistance components to reflect the mixed population context and mitigate community-level tensions. WASH interventions will exclusively target IDPs in the selected camps.ltbrgtUnde…
