The UNFPA Representative in Yemen, Francesco Galtieri, commended the outstanding efforts of the HUMAN ACCESS Association in supporting the rights of women and girls in Yemen, including vital interventions in the field of reproductive health.
This came during field visits by the UN official and his accompanying delegation to several activities implemented by the association in the governorates of Aden, Taiz, and Hodeidah, funded by UNFPA.
The visits involved several safe spaces for women and girls, part of a project to provide livelihood services to the most vulnerable women and girls in Yemen, as well as visits to a number of health facilities included in a project supporting reproductive health services.
During the visits, Galtieri reviewed the services provided to women and girls, including protection, psychosocial support, livelihoods, and reproductive health services. He listened to several beneficiaries and praised HUMAN ACCESS's leading role in supporting and protecting women and providing essential humanitarian assistance as a priority.
In partnership with the UNFPA, HUMAN ACCESS manages 16 safe spaces for women and girls in seven Yemeni governorates, in addition to supporting 11 health facilities to provide a comprehensive package of essential services that respond to the urgent needs of women and girls, contributing to enhancing their dignity and resilience under difficult humanitarian conditions.
