Refugee women fleeing war in Sudan need life-saving care in Chad
Over one million refugees have fled to Chad to escape the war in Sudan.
The majority are women and children who have survived horrific violence.
“We have lost everything. Our homes, families and security,” says Souat, a Sudanese refugee living in Farchana Refugee Camp in Chad.
Hear her story and see how UNFPA—the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency—is providing a lifeline for refugee women and girls in need.

Independent Country Programme Evaluation of UNFPA Yemen (2015-2024)
Document date: 2024
Evaluation type: Country
Region: Arab States
Country: Yemen
Joint evaluation: n/a
System-wide evaluation: n/a
Yemen is in a dire humanitarian crisis after nine years of war, with over half of its population needing aid. Displaced women and girls, especially those with disabilities, struggle to access reproductive health care and are at high risk of gender-based violence. UNFPA has been coordinating and providing reproductive health and protection services since the start of the crisis, and leading the rapid response mechanism for immediate assistance to displaced people since 2018. This independent evaluation undertaken by the UNFPA Independent Evaluation Office assesses UNFPA's response to the crisis in Yemen from 2015 to the present.
The evaluation finds that UNFPA effectively adjusted its programme in Yemen to meet the changing needs of the population, while remaining sensitive to the socio-political context. Although starting with very limited services, UNFPA's work in reproductive health, gender-based violence, and youth programmes led to positive outcomes. UNFPA also successfully adapted its systems and leveraged its partnerships to meet the demands of the humanitarian crisis. The evaluation also highlights the need for UNFPA to strengthen its engagement with vulnerable groups, particularly persons with disabilities. The evaluation recommends better integration of short-term humanitarian efforts with long-term approaches for resilience building and development.

Supporting women and girls two years after Türkiye earthquakes
Two years have passed since the devastating earthquakes in Türkiye.
Currently, there are still over 1.6 million people in need including 416,000 women and girls of reproductive age. 22,800 of them are pregnant.
Fatma, Mehtap, Selda and Saliha are just some of them. They are still feeling the pain and living in container cities with many challenges, including limited access to services.
See how UNFPA—the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency—is supporting them.
