The International Organization for Migration (IOM) implemented site management (SM) programming in 81 Internally Displaced People (IDP) sites in 2024 across 4 Governorates of Yemen, which reached approximately 214,170 people in need.
The program was supported from USAID, CERF, ECHO, Yemen Humanitarian Fund and King Salman Humanitarian Aid & Relief Centre.
During 2024, numerous challenges increased the needs of those residing in the IDP sites and impacted delivery. Notably, over 100 flooding and heavy rain events occurred in 55 IDP sites Taiz, Al Hodeidah, Marib and Ibb between April-May and August-September.
These events destroyed 600+ shelters and partially damaged over 6,000 shelters and other facilities and infrastructures.
In addition, many sites reported an increase in new arrives with over 25,000 people moving to IOM manages sites throughout the year driven by factors such as evictions, movement from unmanaged sites and to access services provided within the sites.
