Country: Yemen Sources: Shelter Cluster, UN High Commissioner for Refugees Please refer to the attached file. As the Yemen Environment Profile has been developed during an ongoing crisis, further actions to improve the integration of environment into the humanitarian response were identified. These actions are listed below as suggestions, recognizing that not all can be implemented immediately and there are external factors, particularly funding and partner capacities, which may hinder implementation.Section 4.2.• The Yemen Shelter Cluster should incorporate a green screening process in evaluating projects included in humanitarian response plans for Yemen (see Annex 22.6).• The Shelter and CCCM Clusters should form the core of a settlements-focused environment working group to • Assure strong coordination on environmentally sound humanitarian response, and,• Provide a mechanism for support on NEAT+ assessments. One of the NEAT+ sections covers shelter. However, information for other sections, particularly the sensitivity section, are more likely to be available through CCCM-based engagement in Yemen, making a joint Shelter-CCCM NEAT+ effort efficient.Section 6.4• Ascertain from the Environmental Protection Agency whether any shelter or settlement activities would require environmental reviews.Section 7.3• Operational research should be used to assess the demand for wood for fuel and shelter construction and contribute to planning nature-based solutions to this threat to the environment (see Section 21).• The Overview of IDP Sites and Areas of Environmental Significance map should be updated with more accurate information on parks, preserves and protected areas (see Annex 22.4) and plans made to minimize negative environmental impacts where they coincide or are adjacent.1 “Protected areas” should include locations designated by neighboring or adjacent communities as places which should be protected.
