In a recent meeting, Yemeni Minister of Local Administration Hussein al-Aghbari praised the efforts of United Nations organizations in supporting local authorities to deliver services and development programs to displaced persons.
Al-Aghbari met with Dennis Schleppi, the Manager of the UNDP Sustainable Solutions for Displaced Persons Project, to discuss the necessity of intensifying efforts and coordinating plans between the Yemeni government and its UN partners.
He emphasized the importance of aligning humanitarian services and projects with the response plans provided by local authorities.
During the meeting, Schleppi outlined the UNDP’s interventions and projects aimed at improving services for displaced persons across several sectors.
These efforts focus on enhancing the living conditions of displaced individuals in their current locations and addressing their basic needs.
Yemen has faced a severe humanitarian crisis due to ongoing conflict, which has displaced millions of people.
The United Nations and its agencies, including the UN Development Programme (UNDP), play a crucial role in providing aid and implementing projects to support the displaced population.
These initiatives include improving access to basic services, such as healthcare, education, and sanitation, as well as facilitating long-term solutions for sustainable development.
