Book excerpt: This assessment is the result of a collaboration between the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and CARE commissioned with the intent of exploring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on gender equality and food security in Yemen using CARE's Rapid Gender Analysis (RGA) Toolkit. The collaboration builds on an innovative partnership established in 2020 between FAO, the World Food Programme (WFP) and CARE to understand the gender-differentiated impacts of COVID-19 on livelihood and food security in the Arab region, with a focus on cases in Iraq and the Sudan. With the passage of time, and due to the particularly complex situation brought on by the numerous crises affecting Yemen (armed conflict, natural disasters and an economic crisis), the study provided the opportunity to reflect on how overlapping and multiple crises generate gender-differentiated impacts on livelihood opportunities, employment, food security and protection risks. While the study methodology originally focused on the impact of COVID-19, the analysis of primary and secondary data provided an opportunity to investigate the connection between different vulnerability multipliers, particularly the ongoing conflict.
