Political situation - Advocacy

2. UN Actors GROUP 3 YEMEN
Question 1
What needs to be done to improve the continuum of care for treatment of acute malnutrition?
- With focus on a referral system to and between CMAM programs

3. Coverage geographical GAP – mismatch in the gaps
MAM Scale up and outreach activities – things have changed, and mobile teams have green area to work, besides Saada and hard to reach areas
- 107 priority districts
- Outreach and Mobile teams (MT) - Mobile that are not covered by HF and integrated package: IMCI, RH, Immunization and SAM – it will include a 5-person for MAM – coverage MAM
- High GAM prevalence - screening MUAC - Once the supplies are there the coverage is going to improve
- Focus HF as according to Herams 50% are non-functional or partially functional – need to be reactivate/ rehabilitated– serve more people – cost effectively
- Referral system – cash based interventions – systematize it – transportation cost

4. Actions Question 1
In the High priority 107 districts and scale up outreach activities (including comprehensive package SAM/ MAM, IMCI, RH, Immunization) and ensure the rehab HF that need to get function going hand by hand
Needs base to scale up the TFC (with cluster 3-4 districts) to have TFCs in the 107 priority districts and assure a strong linkage with OPT services
Address co-morbidities – like cholera
Strengthen the reporting (mismatch in the gaps and maps presented)

5. Question 2
How to scale up preventive nutrition interventions given the very low performance and link in treatment?
Referreral to other services WASH/ FS and prevention activities
IFRR lessons learned
Mapping where the services are already provided
- BSFP coverage – is fairly new Feb/ mar with community level new modality – pilot Prevention community in community vs at HF – 100% and 107 districts
More coordination on prevention and treatment by the different actors 
Define what is a preventive package
- Linkages with GFD
- CHV are doing a lot on prevention
Mapping where the services are already existing
Bottle necks from the IFRR pilot – learning how it is working

6. Actions Question 2
Define prevention package
Prevention at 2 levels community and HF
Stronger coordination at sub nation level
Strengthen reporting (referral)
Linkages with other services and prevent relapsing, and focus on the 107 districts for the preventive package

7. Question 3
How to address challenges related to the different modalities of UN agencies?
Selection of implementing partners
Supplies delivery modalities to HFs
Incentive payments
Geographical targets
Cost effectiveness with joint LoAs, PCS, LSAs
Competition and absorption capacity for partners/ NGOs
Delay in signing agreements
Harmonization of incentives

8. Actions Question 3
Attract more international partners to work in Yemen
Build more capacity of national NGOs;
Fast processing of agreements; have more joint agreements within the UN agencies and that is already happening on a small scale;
No real challenges with modalities of supplies and they are complementary;
Incentives harmonized and clear approach north and south and endorsement for both. Have an agreement on modalities of payments
More coherence among the UN agencies;
Common strategic approach as UN for the delivery of services
