Every child has the right to survive and thrive. The under-5 child mortality rate in Yemen is 73 children per 1000 live births, which is symptomatic of the humanitarian and developmental problems facing children in the country. Rates of severe and moderate acute malnourishment are high across the country, and children affected by conflict have increased vulnerability to negative impacts.

Save the Children’s global Every One campaign is boosting the international community’s effort to save the lives of millions of children that die from basic illnesses every year. Through a global three-year partnership with GlaxoSmithKline, Save the Children is improving the health of people living in the world’s poorest countries, by ensuring access to health workers at the community level.
