Forgotten Women endeavours to help women who have suffered injustice, hardship and neglect whether it is due to war, natural disasters or poverty. Our objective is to offer women the opportunity to develop their independence and protect their dignity.

Story

The Yemen civil war it was started in 2015 leaving aside the politics and the blame it is the children women who always suffer in every war and conflict making up 70 to 80% of those affected. Yemen wasnt a very rich and prosperous nation to start with and the war and has plunged it into even a darker space of inhumanity. The shortage has hit all round with supply of food, employment, livelihood and money. Food shortage means higher prices and lack of employment means many hundreds of thousands and millions will starve because they simply cannot afford to eat. Little Imtiaz is 2 years old and weighs just 4 kilos due to malnutrition which in turn causes other complications like chest infections. They simply cannot afford nutritious food that can keep children healthy and strong. The parents end up feeding them the only food they powdered milk mixed with water and bread. Help them to eat just one meal a day.
