The Yemen Multisector Humanitarian Response Programme (MHRP) aims to reduce the risk of famine and malnutrition in areas of extreme food insecurity. Originally scheduled to end in April 2020, FCDO Ministers approved an extension to September 2021.

The most recent published assessment of the Yemen Multisector Humanitarian Response Programme was undertaken in August 2020 and can be accessed on Development Tracker. A project completion report for the MHRP extension period is expected to be completed by December 2021 and will be subsequently published.
