Handicap International (HI) have been implementing in Yemen on and off for the last 12 years, with its actions initially focused on development issues, notably through the support to the development of physical and functional rehabilitation services for people with disabilities (PwDs) as well as through the capacity-building of the national networks of Yemen Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs).

Since 2015, HI interventions have been adapted to the current context of conflict in Yemen. With the support of different donors, HI has been supporting two hospitals and one physical and functional rehabilitation centre in Sana’a City, building the capacities of their key staff in early rehabilitation care and psychological first aid, and directly providing physical and functional rehabilitation care and psychosocial support to the most vulnerable, including war affected people, providing assistive devices). In 2017, these activities have extended to new facilities in and around Sana’a and early 2018 prosthesis and orthosis. HI currently operates in 1 hospital in Aden and is looking at supporting other HFs. HI is currently finalizing assessment to begin operations in at least 3 HFs within the West Coast.

In parallel, HI is implementing an inclusion and protection mainstreaming project, to increase the knowledge and capacity of International NGOs in the inclusion of the most vulnerable persons in their humanitarian response (including PwD), so as to increase their access to essential services.
In 2020, HI will extend its intervention into new sectors (, Mine Risk Education).
