Affordability of Food & Finance in Yemen
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)

The programme will provide funding to preserve and strengthen institutional capacity, help maintain access to trade finance to enable the continued flow of imports and stabilise food prices. Improved policies will help to stabilise the exchange rate and macroeconomy, reduce food price inflation and avoid further escalation of humanitarian needs. The programme will benefit populations across the country, by lowering the cost of food and increase access to hard currency.
