Summary: | This Joint Social and Economic
Assessment (JSEA) has been prepared in response to a request
from the Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation
(MoPIC), and was undertaken jointly by the World Bank, the
United Nations, the European Union, and the Islamic
Development Bank. The JSEA's main purpose is to assess
the social and economic impact of the crisis in Yemen, and
to identify challenges and key priorities for early
interventions, primarily for the transition period, which is
expected to stretch into the first half of 2014. Putting
Yemen on a path of recovery to prosperity will not only
require a strong commitment and ownership from the
Government and People of Yemen, but also coordinated support
and significant financial resources from all partners and
friends of Yemen. While the JSEA provides analysis of
Yemen's most pressing needs, it is the
Government's Transition Plan that will offer the
roadmap by which Yemen can emerge from crisis stronger and
better able to ensure equitable and sustainable development
for its people. The implementation of the Transition Plan
and donor support should balance humanitarian assistance,
early recovery, reconciliation, and peace-building efforts
in the short run, with support to decisive policy actions
and reforms that will underpin sustainable and inclusive
development, improved governance, and social protection in
the medium to long term. |
