The humanitarian context and the importance of health support in Yemen
The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center's support for the health sector in Yemen is of paramount strategic importance, particularly in densely populated governorates like Hajjah, which face significant infrastructure challenges. Yemen's health sector has been under immense strain due to years of conflict, making the centers supported by the Kingdom a lifeline for thousands of families.
The Al-Ja’ada Health Center is a model of sustainable projects that aim to bridge the gap in medical services, as it directly contributes to reducing mortality rates among mothers and children, and containing epidemics before they spread, which reflects the comprehensive vision of Saudi aid that is not limited to food but includes sustainable health development.
Regional and international impact
These figures and ongoing efforts underscore the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's global leadership in humanitarian work, as it tops the list of donor countries to Yemen. The continued operation of such health centers contributes to strengthening social stability in affected areas and alleviates the burden of internal displacement by providing essential services in people's communities, thus reducing the need for long-distance travel in search of treatment.
