The events in Yemen cast a shadow over all aspects of human life, which led to the deterioration of economic conditions, high rates of poverty and unemployment, an unprecedented increase in the number of displaced people, and an insane rise in food and medicine prices. There is no doubt that poverty has become one of the most important real threats to the economic, security and social stability of the family. As a result of all of the above, children suffer from various types of deprivation, and in many cases are exposed to physical and psychological violence, and this suffering increases in light of the increasing poverty of their families.

The number of children living in poor families and their income is few and their percentage is increasing, and this is causing the exacerbation of their miserable living conditions and further depriving them of their rights as children.

Human rights laws define the child as the one who has not exceeded eighteen years old, and childhood is the first age stage in which the child lives without being disturbed by impurities of life, or changing his values ​​or changing his morals, principles and behaviors. So, he deals with his common sense, which is - childhood - an endless peace.

The International Organization for Children Protection (IODRC) has warned that the sharp price of most commodities, foodstuffs and consumables in Yemen, and the recent collapse of the value of the national currency to its lowest levels are pushing more children into poverty and hunger, and the inability of families to buy food from local markets. The organization also indicates, in its warning, that many of the children of Yemen live on bread and water, with devastating effects on their health, exacerbating the hunger crisis, persistent malnutrition, and stunting their physical and mental development, at a time when desperate fathers sell their women's gold to provide medical care for their children.
