    YEMEN: HUMANITARIAN SNAPSHOT - OVERVIEW ON POPULATION MOVEMENT (as of May 2016)

    POPULATION MOVEMENT (May 2016)

    In the absence of a political solution, the humanitarian situation in Yemen continues to deteriorate. In search of safety and livelihoods, over 2.8 million people continue to be on the move in Yemen. With their safety nets depleted, as savings dwindle and remittances from abroad dry up, more people are moving to makeshift and spontaneous settlements and are turning to negative coping strategies for survival. This includes increased child labour and early marriage. The added stresses on host communities are also increasing as the econo-my collapses. The movement of people is also increasing out of Yemen with over 175,000 fleeing across borders in the region. Lured by stories of times past and by traffickers, over 30,000 people have also crossed into Yemen fleeing persecution and looking for work opportunities.
