Cover Page: anasalhajj / Shutterstock.com Disclaimer The Yemen Dynamic Needs Assessment (DNA) is an in-conflict assessment that relies primarily on remote data sources, including satellite imagery and social media analytics. Every effort has been made to triangulate such remote data with data and assessments available from the Government of Yemen and ground partners. Despite these efforts, this assessment may contain residual inaccuracies and is not a substitute for a ground-based eval- uation. Instead, it provides an indicative picture of the effect of the conflict on physical infrastructure and quality of services, offering preliminary estimates of recovery and reconstruction needs. A first phase of the DNA, conducted in fall 2015, had a limited geographic and sectoral scope. The second phase, finalized in June 2017, updated the first-phase results and extended the geographic and sectoral range. This third phase represents a further expansion. However, it does not cover all cities and regions in Yemen, and therefore is not indicative of the entire country. The figures presented here provide only a partial estimate of the impact of the crisis and the country’s recovery needs. It is also important to note that the COVID-19 health crisis and its impact on human life, service delivery, insti- tutions, and economic livelihoods are not covered in this report, as this third phase of the DNA covers data and information collected as of January 2020. 73720_Yemen DNA Phase 3_English_NEWNEW.indd 1 11/6/20 7:16 AM Contents Abbreviations and Acronyms . viii Acknowledgments . xi Executive Summary . xiii Overview . 1 Context............................................................................................1 Macroeconomic Overview ..........................................................................2 Objectives of the DNA ..............................................................................4 Scope .............................................................................................4 Methodology ......................................................................................5 Limitations ........................................................................................6 Findings ...........................................................................................7 Summaries of Sector Reports ......................................................................15 Toward Recovery and Resilience ...................................................................23 1.

  • On Conservation and Development: the Role of Traditional Mud Brick Firms in Southern Yemen*
    On Conservation and Development: The Role of Traditional Mud Brick Firms in Southern Yemen* Deepa Mehta Graduate School of Architecture, Planning & Preservation** Columbia University in the City of New York New York, NY 10027, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT A study of small and medium enterprises that make up the highly specialized mud brick construction industry in southern Yemen reveals how the practice has been sustained through closely-linked regional production chains and strong firm inter-relationships. Yemen, as it struggles to grow as a nation, has the potential to gain from examining the contribution that these institutions make to an ancient building practice that still continues to provide jobs and train new skilled workers. The impact of these firms can be bolstered through formal recognition and capacity development. UNESCO, ICOMOS, and other conservation agencies active in the region provide a model that emphasizes architectural conservation as well as the concurrent development of the existing socioeconomic linkages. The primary challenge is that mud brick construction is considered obsolete, but evidence shows that the underlying institutions are resilient and sustainable, and can potentially provide positive regional policy implications. Key Words: conservation, planning, development, informal sector, capacity building, Yemen, mud brick construction. * Paper prepared for GLOBELICS 2009: Inclusive Growth, Innovation and Technological Change: education, social capital and sustainable development, October 6th –

    United Nations S/2020/70 Security Council Distr.: General 27 January 2020 Original: English Letter dated 27 January 2020 from the Panel of Experts on Yemen addressed to the President of the Security Council The members of the Panel of Experts on Yemen have the honour to transmit herewith the final report of the Panel, prepared in accordance with paragraph 6 of resolution 2456 (2019). The report was provided to the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 2140 (2014) on 27 December 2019 and was considered by the Committee on 10 January 2020. We would appreciate it if the present letter and the report were brought to the attention of the members of the Security Council and issued as a document of the Council.

The country’s many conflicts are interconnected and can no longer be separated by clear divisions between external and internal actors and events. Throughout 2019, the Houthis and the Government of Yemen made little headway towards either a political settlement or a conclusive military victory. In a continuation from 2018, the belligerents continued to practice economic warfare: using economic obstruction and financial tools as weapons to starve opponents of funds or materials. Profiteering from the conflict is endemic.

    Country Information and Guidance Yemen: Security and humanitarian situation Version 2.0 April 2016 Preface This document provides country of origin information (COI) and guidance to Home Office decision makers on handling particular types of protection and human rights claims. This includes whether claims are likely to justify the granting of asylum, humanitarian protection or discretionary leave and whether – in the event of a claim being refused – it is likely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under s94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must consider claims on an individual basis, taking into account the case specific facts and all relevant evidence, including: the guidance contained with this document; the available COI; any applicable caselaw; and the Home Office casework guidance in relation to relevant policies. Country Information The COI within this document has been compiled from a wide range of external information sources (usually) published in English. Consideration has been given to the relevance, reliability, accuracy, objectivity, currency, transparency and traceability of the information and wherever possible attempts have been made to corroborate the information used across independent sources, to ensure accuracy. All sources cited have been referenced in footnotes. It has been researched and presented with reference to the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the European Asylum Support Office’s research guidelines, Country of Origin Information report methodology, dated July 2012. Feedback Our goal is to continuously improve the guidance and information we provide. Therefore, if you would like to comment on this document, please e-mail us.

Survey and control operations were limited due to insecurity and beekeeping and only 5,000 ha could be treated. Large areas could not be accessed where bands and swarms were probably forming. Adults and adult groups moved to the winter breeding areas along the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden coasts where early first generation egg-laying and hatching caused small hopper groups and bands to DLIS form. Ground control operations commenced on 27 September.
