Country cooperation strategy for WHO and Yemen 2024-2025

Overview

This Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS) sets out the shared agenda and priorities for work between WHO and the health authorities in Yemen for 2024–2025. This strategy also comes after a lapse of time since the last CCS, which ended in 2013. In the interim, WHO’s work in Yemen has been guided primarily by the United Nations Yemen Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework 2022–2024 (UNSDCF) and annual humanitarian response plans.

Considering the rapidly changing dynamics in Yemen, WHO has fast-tracked the development of this CCS, while retaining a strong emphasis on maintaining a participatory and inclusive approach, engaging with the Ministry of Public Health and Population, the health authorities, humanitarian and development partners, the United Nations Country Team (UNCT) and 58 operational partners convened by the WHO-led Health Cluster.
