Yemeni communities becoming resilient one seed at a time
DRC Yemen has partnered with local farmer communities in the Sa’dah Governorate in the north-west of the country, to collect, preserve, store and multiply traditional seed stock to increase food security. Being an extremely fragile state, Yemenis and displaced people heavily depend on humanitarian aid for food. Reclamation of seed security is key to build resilience, protect livelihoods and, thus, reduce conflict risks.
