MCOF-Yemen-2017-2018.Pdf International Organization for Migration YEMEN Migration Crisis Operational Framework (MCOF) 2017 - 2018 International Organization for Migration Yemen Country Office Sana’a, Republic of Yemen Tel.: +967 1 410 568 / 572 Fax: +967 1 412 251 Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.iom.int/countries/yemen © 2017 International Organization for Migration (IOM) 1 INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATION The International Organization for Migration (IOM) works to ensure the orderly and humane management of migration, to promote international cooperation on migration issues, to provide technical support to address migration challenges, and to provide humanitarian assistance and transition opportunities to migrants in need, including refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host communities. IOM globally has 166 member states, eight observer states, and offices in over 100 countries and became a related organization to the United Nations (UN) in 2016. IOM Yemen operates under the IOM Middle East and North Africa Regional Office in Cairo, Egypt, including Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Syria, Sudan and Tunisia IOM’s objective for the MENA region is to: Enhance good governance of migration throughout the Middle East and North Africa region, ultimately aspiring towards migration and human mobility that is humane and orderly and that benefits migrants and societies. IOM will do so by addressing the mobility dimensions of crises affecting the region and by contributing to structural transformations in the way in which migration is approached, addressed and discussed in the Middle East and North Africa. MIGRATION CRISIS OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK Following the adoption of Council Resolution No. 1243 of 27 November 2012, the IOM Migration Crisis Operational Framework (MCOF) is based on the concept of a “migration crisis,” a term that describes the complex and often large- scale migration flows and mobility patterns caused by a crisis. Migration crises typically involve significant vulnerabilities for individuals and impacted communities, and generate acute and long term migration management challenges. A migration crisis may be sudden or slow in onset, can have natural or man-made causes, and can take place internally or across borders. For this reason, the MCOF looks at the patterns of human mobility before, during, and after a crisis in relation to IOM’s sectors of assistance. Each sector of assistance represents a distinct set of IOM activities that have a specific function in an operational response, depending on the type and phase of the crisis. IOM’s 15 sectors include: 1) camp management and displacement tracking; 2) shelter and non-food items; 3) transport assistance for affected populations; 4) health support; 5) psychosocial support; 6) (re)integration assistance; 7) activities to support community stabilization and transition; 8) disaster risk reduction and resilience building; 9) land and property support; 10) counter-trafficking and protection of vulnerable migrants; 11) technical assistance to humanitarian border management; 12) emergency consular assistance; 13) diaspora and human resource mobilization; 14) migration policy and legislation support; and 15) humanitarian communications. The MCOF complements and reinforces existing international systems, including the cluster system, refugee regime, peace and security actors, and development actors. The MCOF was developed in order to provide an analytical tool to assess IOM’s operations and to support states in times of migration crises. ©IOM Yemen 2016 2 CONTENTS Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 4 IOM Migration Crisis Operations in Yemen ...................................................................................... 5 PART I Context Analysis ............................................................................................................... 6 Key factors determining the migration crisis in Yemen ................................................................... 6 Mobility Dimensions of the Crisis ............................................................................................... 7 I.

Since the escalation of the conflict in March 2015, the humanitarian situation in Yemen continues to deteriorate. Years of poverty, underdevelopment, environmental decline, intermittent conflict, and weak rule of law – including widespread violations of human rights - have contributed to over 5 years of crisis. As of December 2016, there are over 2 million Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), 1 mainly in the northwestern parts of the country, with an additional estimated 1.03 million IDP returnees. The situation in Yemen has become all the more complex as a result of the country’s status as a country of origin, transit, and destination for example refugees, returnees, economic and irregular and regular migrants. Regular migration flows between the Horn of Africa and Yemen have surged to such a degree as a result of the complex realities of political and economic dynamics in the region, that the number of migrants have overwhelmed available resources. The UN estimates that more than 100,000 migrants and refugees crossed the Red or Arabian Seas and landed in Yemen in 2016, an influx that exceeds 2014 and 2015 estimated levels.2 In addition to those migrants staying in Yemen, many migrants transit under alarming conditions through war-torn Yemen to Saudi Arabia in search of work, and are often victims of smuggling rings and other criminal networks. While displacement in Yemen remains fluid, the emergence of return pockets is observed requiring for a tailored multi- sectorial approach of assistance in order to enhance stability in target areas. Required assistance includes health care, mental health and psychosocial support, as well as community stabilization and transition, reintegration support, disaster risk reduction (DDR) and resilience building. Given the current situation, it is likely that the humanitarian challenges will continue to remain high over the coming years, as there are currently 18.8 million people in need of humanitarian assistance. The collapse of basic services and institutions, poverty, environmental decline and collapse of the agricultural sector furthermore seriously hamper the recovery of Yemen. In an effort to support the Government of Yemen and its people to address the aforementioned migration challenges, the IOM mission to Yemen has developed its Strategic Plan for 2017/2018 to both demonstrate the principlesandoutlinetheobjectivestowardsachievinggoodmigrationgovernance.This comprehensive document lays the groundwork for programmatic development and strategic planning to address current and anticipated needs in the coming years in Yemen. This document is furthermore predicated on the continued collaboration of IOM with local and national governments, national and international partner organizations, civil society organizations, donors, international humanitarian systems, and local communities. To ensure an in-depth and systematic analysis and response, IOM uses the Migration Crisis Operational

Abdulghani AlShawafi2, Huda BaSaleem3, Iman Ahmed Saleh Al-Gawfi2, Fouad Othman4, Fouzia Shafique5, Eman Al-Kubati5, Nuzhat Rafique5 and Paul Spiegel1 Abstract Background: Armed conflict, food insecurity, epidemic cholera, economic decline and deterioration of essential public services present overwhelming challenges to population health and well-being in Yemen. Although the majority of the population is in need of humanitarian assistance and civil servants in many areas have not received salaries since 2016, many healthcare providers continue to work, and families continue to need and seek care. Methods: This case study examines how reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and nutrition (RMNCAH+N) services have been delivered since 2015, and identifies factors influencing implementation of these services in three governorates of Yemen. Content analysis methods were used to analyze publicly available documents and datasets published since 2000 as well as 94 semi-structured individual and group interviews conducted with government officials, humanitarian agency staff and facility-based healthcare providers and six focus group discussions conducted with community health midwives and volunteers in September–October 2018. Results: Humanitarian response efforts focus on maintaining basic services at functioning facilities, and deploying mobile clinics, outreach teams and community health volunteer networks to address urgent needs where access is possible. Attention to specific aspects of RMNCAH+N varies slightly by location, with differences driven by priorities of government authorities, levels of violence, humanitarian access and availability of qualified human resources.

  • Helpdesk Research Report: Humanitarian Work in Syria and Yemen Date
    Helpdesk Research Report: Humanitarian work in Syria and Yemen Date: 02.08.2012 Query: Please identify humanitarian partners and projects currently operating in Syria and Yemen. Enquirer: Middle East and North Africa Section, AusAID Author: Huma Haider ([email protected]) Contents 1. Introduction 2. Humanitarian work in Syria 3. Humanitarian work in Yemen 1. Overview Syria and Yemen are both experiencing immense humanitarian and development challenges. Violent conflict, political and civil unrest, rising food and fuel prices, mass unemployment and breakdown in social services have contributed to massive displacement, food insecurity and acute malnutrition, difficult living conditions, lack of basic services and poor housing. Neighbouring countries (Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Turkey) have also been affected by the recent influx of refugees from Syria. There are various multilateral, bilateral and non-governmental organisations that are providing humanitarian assistance to Syria (and neighbouring countries housing Syrian refugees) and Yemen. This helpdesk report provides an overview of humanitarian actors and activities currently operating in these contexts. It is not an exhaustive list, but presents a wide range of actors for whom information was available and outlines the specific programmes and activities in which they are involved. These include: provision of food supplies, hygiene kits, blankets, clothing and temporary housing support to recently displaced and refugee populations, and host communities provision of clean water and sanitation access to basic health services and emergency health care 1 rehabilitation of schools, psychosocial programming for children and support to orphans support for livelihoods ongoing support to refugees present in Syria (from Iraq) and Yemen (from the Horn of Africa).

  • The Political Participation of the Diaspora of the Middle East And
    C Sarsar, C D’Hondt, MT Di Lenna, A al-Khulidi & S Taha ‘The political participation of the diaspora of the Middle East and North Africa before and after the Arab uprisings’ (2019) 3 Global Campus Human Rights Journal 52-75 https://doi.org/20.500.11825/995 The political participation of the diaspora of the Middle East and North Africa before and after the Arab uprisings Chafic Sarsar, Cedric D’Hondt, Maria Teresia Di Lenna, Ali al- Khulidi and Suhail Taha* Abstract: The role of the Arab diasporas in the political processes of their home countries has changed significantly since the 2011 uprisings. The article aims to analyse these changes and assess the impact that diasporas have had on the democratisation processes of the post-2011 transitions. It does so by looking at examples of both direct and indirect diasporas’ participation in the politics of their home countries during and after the uprisings through mechanisms such as lobbying, campaigning, national dialogue initiatives, and voting in the parliamentary elections. The background to the social, economic and political contributions of the Arab diasporas before 2011 highlights the multiple identities of the diaspora communities abroad as well as the changes to their inclusion from disputed members of the regimes’ opposition to a more active civil society. With the shifting social and political environment of the last decade, the examples demonstrate the important political role that diasporas could play in cooperation and bridge building, both locally and internationally. However, they also demonstrate the obstacles and severe limitations they face in their inclusion in the governments’ transition to democratic governance.

  • Permanent Mission of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
    (Translated from Arabic) Permanent Mission of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations Office at Geneva • The Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia decided, in recognition of the worsening humanitarian crisis in the Republic of Yemen, to establish forthwith the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre in response to orders from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, so that it could serve as the Kingdom’s relief agency for the implementation of humanitarian relief projects in a highly professional manner and in accordance with the humanitarian principles enshrined in the teachings of the true religion of Islam. • The establishment of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre coincided with the launching of the United Nations humanitarian appeal for US$ 274 million on behalf of Yemen. The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques pledged that the Kingdom would pay the full amount of the appeal and that the Centre would finance the projects and programmes. The order from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques was also intended to save the Yemeni people, who have been living in dire humanitarian circumstances since the attacks of the Houthi militias and their supporters. It was noted that the provision of humanitarian assistance by the Kingdom would draw the attention of the international community in a rational manner to the tragic events in Yemen and its innocent victims. • In accordance with the order issued by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, the Centre rapidly proceeded to sign agreements with United Nations organizations concerning the implementation of the relief and humanitarian programmes and projects.
