With funding from Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD), Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) has launched an integrated emergency response to cholera in Yemen, with the aim of strengthening the medical capacity of 26 medical facilities to control the epidemic in six governorates, at a total cost of QR 1,825,000.

To ensure an effectiveness and impactful intervention, certain criteria were used to select the target locations, including epidemic prevalence rates and the overpopulated areas of high response priority and most affected population density in Amanat Al-Asimah, Sanaa, Taiz, Hajjah, Al-Hudaydah, and Dhale.
