<p>The UK is working closely with partners in Yemen to support the delivery of local
services on which Yemenis rely. This includes the Yemeni Social Fund for Development,
a national development institution established in 1997 to improve basic services,
enhance economic opportunities, and reduce the vulnerability of the poor.</p><p> </p><p>Between
2010 and 2018, DFID contributed £108 million to the Yemen Social Fund for Development
to provide hundreds of thousands of Yemenis with work opportunities restoring roads,
health clinics, and agricultural land, as well as providing training, infrastructure
improvements, and clean water to thousands more. We will be funding the Yemen Social
Fund for Development again this year.</p>
