<p>The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world's largest humanitarian organization, working to save lives and combat hunger globally. In Yemen, one of the world's most severe humanitarian crises continues to drive widespread food insecurity and vulnerability. According to the 2026 Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP), an estimated 22.3 million people require humanitarian assistance, including 18.3 million people in need of food security and livelihood support. WFP's response focuses on saving lives, protecting livelihoods, and improving food consumption among the most vulnerable populations through life-saving food assistance and nutrition interventions. To support evidence-based programming and strategic decision-making, WFP Yemen's Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping (VAM) unit leads food security monitoring, assessments, and analysis across the country. The unit conducts large-scale food security and livelihood assessments, market monitoring, beneficiary monitoring, and other analytical activities that generate critical information on food security conditions, market trends, household vulnerabilities, and humanitarian needs. These efforts provide the evidence base for Programme design, targeting, operational planning, donor engagement, resource mobilization, and advocacy. The VAM unit manages and analyzes a wide range of datasets and produces regular analytical products, including monthly food security updates, quarterly food security and market monitoring and market functionality assessments. Through rigorous data collection, analysis, and reporting, the unit plays a central role in informing WFP's response and supporting humanitarian decision-making across Yemen.</p><p>The VAM Officer (Statistician) will support the design, implementation, and analysis of food security assessments and surveys by applying sound statistical methodologies and ensuring the quality, accuracy, and reliability of data collected by WFP Yemen. The position is responsible for conducting statistical analyses and modeling, developing sampling methodologies, managing survey datasets, and producing evidence-based findings to inform food security monitoring, Programme implementation, and humanitarian response.

These challenges have weakened governance systems, disrupted economic activity, and increased poverty, food insecurity, and vulnerability across the country.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;While humanitarian assistance remains essential, sustainable recovery requires longer-term investments in livelihoods, economic resilience, local governance, institutional strengthening, and climate-resilient agriculture.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;UNDP is implementing a portfolio of complementary projects to address these interconnected challenges. This includes the Resilient Economies and Sustainable Livelihoods for Empowerment in Yemen (RESOLVE) project funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) ; the Local Governance for Area-based Development (LoGABD) project funded by the European Union (EU) ; and the Climate-Resilient Agriculture and Job Opportunities in Yemen (SANABEL) project, also funded by the EU. These projects are designed with a synergistic, area-based approach to maximize impact and efficiency.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;RESOLVE (SDC) focuses on strengthening the resilience and economic empowerment of vulnerable communities in Marib and Hadramout governorates by promoting sustainable livelihoods through agribusiness development, agricultural value chain strengthening, improved access to finance, and enhanced local economic governance.&nbsp;</p><br> <p>&nbsp;LoGABD (EU) aims to strengthen the capacity of local authorities across seven governorates (Aden, Hadramout, Lahj, Marib, Taiz, Al Mahrah, Socotra) to effectively plan, budget, finance, and deliver public services, manage IDP populations, and foster climate resilience.
